Revealing mistake: In the final battle scene, when Edward does a flip around (and then breaks someone's head off), as he flips, you can see that the stunt double doing the flip looks totally different - taller, thinner, lankier, different face and hair.

Chosen answer: It's because it's a computer generated image. Renesmee, Edward and Bella's daughter, grows almost three times as fast as a normal human child would, maturing in about seven years. To achieve the effect, a young actress was used for the motion capture and the as the framework for what Renesmee would look like at various stages of her development. CGI effects have come a long way, but it's still imperfect and can look unnatural.
