There is only one way to watch this movie: as a comedy. It's hilariously bad. Trying to watch it as anything but will give you headaches.

Acting was good, excellent visual effects, and great camera shots and angles. This would have gotten a 7 out of 10, but due to the undeserved bashing this film has received, I bumped it to ten.

At the very beginning I was positive I was going to hate it because it was so different from the book, but once we meet Edward almost everything is great. Edward kind of acted like a creeper in the beginning, the way he scolded Bella for tripping and the way he just walked away after blaming his eye color change on the "flourescents". And the girl who plays Alice is perfect for Alice. Like seriously.
You may want to read the book first, because parts were a little confusing to my friend who didn't read the books, but this was a great movie.

The book is always better but the movie came relatively and surprisingly close. I was more than satisfied with the turn out, especially to have seen the characters come to life on film aside from using your imagination when reading the books was a sheer delight. Imagination and appreciation goes along way when a film comes close to the book. Can't wait for part 2, and I believe it willl just get better with each film. People tend to forget that this is a love STORY which totally brought me back to my days of PUPPY LOVE and anticipation of that first KISS, its also got plenty action. Its not intended to be a TERMINATOR FLICK, it has to keep the element of love aswell. I think it has a great combination of both as an intro to the SAGA and Bella's and Edwards love, I also hope that the element remains and that the action does indeed intensify as the story / saga thickens!!!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all, vampires aren't real. So everyone who is saying "they're not real vampires", well, obviously. It's just a different take on vampires, which again, I should highlight as some people may be confused, are fictional. Anyway, I think this movie is good for teenage girls. It's focusing on the romance involving a girl who is shy and feels nobody really 'gets her'. As for the action, what more could you want? They smash them to pieces and set them on fire! I think each of these movies are getting better and better and I can't wait to see what Breaking Dawn is going to be like. Expand

An interesting spin on the vampire theme. I particularly enjoyed how they spent so much time on the developing relationship; you always want more of that in a movie - but instead they focus too much on the action parts. They did it right with this movie. You must remember that the book is told from the viewpoint of Bella, and a lot of the book is her thoughts. How do you get that on screen? It's difficult, and I believe they made a very decent attempt at it. They couldn't capture everything from the book so they captured the characters "journey" fairly accurately. I have since read the book as well as the second book, and I will be reading the third over the next day or so. It's not the most amazing litterature ever but it's fun to read and it's an interesting story. The story isn't only enjoyable to teenagers. I just turned 30 on the 20th and I thought it was good.

"Burn after reading" got a score of 63, and "Twilight" got a score of 56. I watched Burn after reading in the theater, and I put it in my top 10 worst movies I've ever seen in the theater. Conversely, I very much enjoyed Twilight. I liked the music, camera angles, scenery, and the actors/supporting actors performed very well. All in all, I was entertained and left wanting more. For that I give this movie a 8-1/2 out of 10. Oh! did I mention that all the girls in this movie are pretty HOTT!, Mostly Bella, and the 2 Cullen sisters. =] Expand

20 billion percent better than the book. I probably just made myself a few (thousand) enemies. I actually really liked this movie. I thought it was well done, and I liked that they made it less boring than the book.

You were just waiting for something to happen, and epic battle or confrontation of some sort, but nothing happened. It was exciting and romantic without being cheesy, and captured my attention from start to finish. Expand

The movie strayed from the book for a few parts and for the better. i thought kristen stewart was a fantastic bella, and i dont think anyone wants to read about my complete obsession with robert pattinson so i will abstain from mentioning it. the film made me smile and it was an interesting love story,but i can definitely understand how some people wouldnt like it. my only problems with the movie were some of the corny lines and the "special effects" werent exactly state of the art. but i think that will improve in the next film due to the huge success of twilight. overall i think you either loved or hated this movie and i happen to love it. robert pattinson was great, the dialogue(spidermonkey) was not his fault and i thought he did it better than anyone else could have and he was successful in making almost every girl want a vampire boyfriend. his songs in the movie were fantastic, he is an amazing musician. moral of the story: if your a girl who likes love stories and hot guys- you will love it. if not- then go see another movie and stop making fun of it.

First of all, I went into the movie right after reading through the full series, from page one of Twilight right through to the last page of Breaking Dawn (Uninterupted it took me 22 Hours, and I've now been up for 32.) However; I didFirst of all, I went into the movie right after reading through the full series, from page one of Twilight right through to the last page of Breaking Dawn (Uninterupted it took me 22 Hours, and I've now been up for 32.) However; I did not go into the movie with any expectations. After sitting through the movie, I can tell you without a doubt that it was totally worth it, and is easily in my top ten movies of all time, however, there were a few problems I had. First of all, the movie seemed to rush through everything. It didn't give you a lot of time to think between major plot pieces, and that bumped the score down a little for me. I don't like to be bombarded with too much information too quickly as you never seem to be able to grasp it all. Secondly, I didn't think that they were true enough to Edward's character, leaving him a bit more nervous than he'd been portrayed in the book. It didn't bother me too much, but since the book was that way, I don't see why the movie couldn't portray him as charismatically unsure as well. Nervous and sketchy was a little off the mark. Lastly, I didn't think that it was long enough. It could have used about twenty minutes or so more of padding, the little scenes, like the whole 'La Push Beach Excursion" could have been lengthened, as well as making the first woods scene a little more true to the book. Now, that said, I believe that any true Twilight fan will really like this movie, as it's a good representation of the book, save for the small details and slightly rushed plot. This movie gets an 8.5/10 from me, and even as a twenty year old guy, I highly recommend it. (No, really.) Expand

Hard to follow at first, then once you learn to understand the way the characters act it makes much more sense and becomes a more enjoyable movie.

I havent read the book but I did enjoy the movie and understood what it was all about. Those who wanted even more perhaos did enjoy movies that made barely 10 million dollars on its first weekend. People who didnt enjoy it are dead and numb.

Quando dizem que o livro é bem melhor que o filme, sempre ouçam. O filme não é tão ruim quanto dizem, mas poderia ser melhor se tivesse colocado partes bem mais interessantes que tem no livro, como quando ela descobre o verdadeiro Edward.

The overall movie was well put together and kept me on the edge of my seat. What suprised me the most was the comedy in it. The first time i saw it the audience was laughing in almost every scene. For the actors in this i think that they found the best cast humanly possible. Im sick of people complaining about how thats not the right person playing so-and-so, im meen really, how do you expect to find someone pale, beautiful, scary, but alluring, with a voice like in angel, and glides fluently as they walk? Its not possible! so to sum it all up -2 for keeping a great scene out bringing it to an 8. Expand

The only reason that I gave it an eight is because the film didn't have enough budgeting for better visual effects. I think that it is sad that we live in a world where even our fictional characters are stereotyped. Just because someone a long time ago said that vampires are supposed to brun in sunlight and can only live off human blood then no one else's idea of a vampire is acceptable now? I guess all aliens are supposed to be green with black eyes and big heads too. Well there goes all the alien movies ever made. The point was to be different and not copy everyone else's ideas. You don't have to like the movie, but at least give some respect to the writer for stepping outside the box. Expand

Some parts of the movie were exceptional, (needed more scenes that Edward and Bella interact) but I was surprised. Prior to watching this movie I had heard of the twilight saga, but had never read it. I watched the movie with expectation. Some parts of the movie were exceptional, (needed more scenes that Edward and Bella interact) but the scenes where they did were nice. I do believe they casted the role of Edward right on the money, but the role of Bella needed to be rethought. Edward projected the role of a repressed vampire extremely well, but Bella just seemed off the mark, but over all I enjoyed the movie. After watching the movie I decided to try the books, (as I am a reader I am always looking for new material to read) I absolutely loved the books, wish there were more coming, but after reading twilight the book, I so disappointed in the movie. They needed to include so much more in the movie that was in the book, in verse they should have included the treetop scene in the book, that was a highly romantic scene in the movie, and told alot about how Edward and Bella interacted with one another, more interested in conversation then sex, although sexual tension was there, but wanted to know each other at that point was so much more important to them. Over all my experience was good, but please allow it to follow the book more. Just my two cents, thanks for reading. 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
