I beleve that the director does not demand more of the actors, because when you have a demanding director you can get the worst actors to look like the best. the story draged on too long, and felt boring, the vampires acted way too depressing, and sure a little depresing is okay but they way over did it. in one ocassin I saw the main character who is not suposed to be in derect sunlight ouside in a cloud free sunny day,their is no way that this group of teenagers could have gone to a normal school without raising some crazy suspicions. alot of girls went to see the movie, but it was the book that made them go.… Expand

Just like the rest of the girls in America, I was sucked into the cult of Stephanie Meyer. I read all the borrowed books and even bought Break Dawn. I fully enjoyed the series for what it was: fluff. The problem with some people's viewJust like the rest of the girls in America, I was sucked into the cult of Stephanie Meyer. I read all the borrowed books and even bought Break Dawn. I fully enjoyed the series for what it was: fluff. The problem with some people's view on the film is that they are going to see it expecting gold, or on the other end of the spectrum, crap. This movie fully lived up to my expectations and actually a little higher. Yes I know many people think that Pattinson was miscast and Stewart was "too pretty" for the role of Bella but who cares? Their line delivery was fantastic. Even one of my straight male friends was laughing out loud at points. I will agree however that if you didn't read the book(s) you didn't get the full (for lack of a better word) "experience" of the movie. But that doesn't mean it deserves a 2 out of 10 rating. You don't go to Disaster Movie expecting to be floored by their original jokes and Oscar worthy acting do you? Then don't go into Twilight expecting to see Cohen film and you won't be disappointed.… Expand

If you didn't read the book, it was a good movie. I find it strange how the vampires don't burn in sunlight, or when they're near a cross. They can see their reflections too. The jumping around looked very wired, as it was too straight and incredibly unnatural (we're talking about vampires here). There was absolutely no reason why this couldn't be PG. The "one scene of sensuality" is where Bella dn Edward kiss on a bed, and the fighting is overall a rather big "meh". The acting was mediocre; no standouts there. Pretty much a good movie, but there is room for imporvement.… Expand
