Terribly.......gay October 24, 2009 A. Son (USA) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This movie was awful. Is this movie supposed to be a comedy? It made me laugh quite a few times.
Teen Drama, Yawn, But the Story...Oooh So Fascinating October 24, 2009 Kelly Klepfer (Iowa) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Twilight is another movie I had no intention of seeing but watched it anyway and actually ended up absorbed in the story. Not in love, not necessarily recommending it, but absorbed. I've not read the books. Not that I don't want to, I do. But I've been told that I'll need to set aside time because once I start I won't want to stop.
I've seen a few vampire movies. As far as Twilight in the vampire department...the gore is minimal as is the horror. Its there, bubbling under the surface and busting out during some scary moments. So, I'd say the story includes vampires but doesn't live out all vampire all the time. I appreciated the lack of rank language and sex, too. Pretty innocent overall. Not necessarily good and healthy relationships between Bella and her parents (a little sneaking, a little what they don't know won't hurt them, a little meeting with the vampire in the bedroom.) Bella and Edward don't have the healthiest of relationships either...more drama than substance.
The key plot is the budding relationship between Bella and Edward. And that may have been my least favorite part of the movie. Some cheesy dialogue and scenes annoyed me, some more than others. And Edward and Bella have been done before...teen misunderstood bad boy (okay, with a twist) and girl who just wants to be loved and cherished meet and connect. But Edward's mood swings and Bella's persistent crush almost don't make sense because they go a bit over-the-top. Some of the special effects were jarring as well.
The legends and the underlying mystery...oh, those were the absorbing things. I was fully sucked-in (pardon the pun) and will be very likely to watch the second movie, not opening night but eventually. And I plan to read the series. If the books are better, the prophecy that I'll have to marathon read them will probably come true.
GREAT MOVIE! TWILIGHT FOREVER! October 21, 2009 Kevin L. Hambric (Virginia) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was a great movie for the budget they had. I just wish they could go back and remake it the way Catherine Hardwicke wanted too. She did her best and it shows, it was wonderful. The cast was great, the chemistry is superb. The book is better but books usually are better then movies.
Like new October 20, 2009 Anne Hudson (USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The special features were interesting and something I would watch again. I watched this movie four times and still don't get tired of it.
Don't compare it to the book October 18, 2009 Shopaholic (NY) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The 1st time I watched this movie I was disapointed. It doesn't live up to the book. But after watching it again, knowing it wasn't going to acurately portray the true depth of the book, I loved it.
