Twilight critique...no spoilers!!


I liked it...A LOT!! I thought Pattinson made a decent Edward. I also thought they could have made it just a little bit better (this is just me talking) though considering all the hype surrounding it. That is mostly due to the fans though I think...not the filmmakers.

All the intensity of Bella and Edward's relationship was definitely there. Kristen Stewart made a good Bella but she might have been a little too serious. And even though Taylor Lautner is much younger than Pattinson, his character looked like he could already kick Edward's butt! The human cast was very entertaining...especially Eric.

I'll definitely buy it once it comes out on DVD and I'll most likely go see it again in theaters if asked. But more importantly I won a shirt and I never win anything!
The theater was filled with a lot of younger viewers but that didn't bother my friend Dawn (who got me reading these books over the summer) or me. We had a great time!

I give this film 4 out of 5 stars. And if you love the books you'll be very pleased with the movie version. Pattinson gives out some pretty hot/intense looks!

To quote Roger Ebert: "'Twilight' will mesmerize its target audience, 16-year-old girls and their grandmothers."

And that's exactly who was at the screening. The only difference between me and the grandmothers was I didn't drop the girls off and leave like they did.
