It may get garbage collected and stop in the middle! I was having so many problems with this until I saw <a href="http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2007/11/18/as3-garbage-collection-the-reason-your-tweens-are-ending-early/" rel="nofollow">this post about Tweens stopping randomly.</a> You'd think if they were trying to make this easy to use, Flash developers would have built in a safeguard for that. But, of course, this is Adobe and they rarely actually implement anything that would work in the real world. Hence someone had to write Tweener or TweenLite, basically to replace functionality that Adobe screwed up yet again.

I recently switched over to it from Tweener. Great performance and a very simple interface. And the author even provides an extended version - TweenMax - for people who want more.
