Probably just for 15 y.o. girls. Very TV movie-esque with the acting, filming, long thoughtful stares, even the special effects. Hopefully will improve as the movies progress.

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

It was bearable. I think people go into this movie exoecting to hate it and just want to piss of the crazy little girls who love it. Kristen Stewart tries to hard and is to melodramatic, but Patinson suprisingly good and charming. Hardwicke It was bearable. I think people go into this movie exoecting to hate it and just want to piss of the crazy little girls who love it. Kristen Stewart tries to hard and is to melodramatic, but Patinson suprisingly good and charming. Hardwicke is a terrible director. Its obvious that she can't control herself with random, orgasmic camera movements that are detrimental to their cause: building tension. On top of this she brings out nothin in her ensemble and can't direct action. It's not only budget, there are movie with dirt cheap budgets that pull it off ebcause the director can HIDE the budget if they are good at all. Hardwicke is not good. At all. And I don't care what the slappy's say, when there's a mythology around a being (i.e. Vampires have fangs, and only come out at night) it's a writers duty to simultaneously meet the requirments for the type, and defy boundaries without rewriting whats been previously laid down. This is like a werewolf that doesn't transform on full moons... oh wait, that ends up happening in the next movie doesn't it?… Expand

What's all the fuss about?! It's a rather ordinary story, peppered with a few good special effects and a lot of way too pale skin. The performances are fair, good score and cinematography but it hardly has that "wow" factor.

The one thing I give the filmmakers respect for was how they portrayed teenagers as they are supposed to be and not how they are on Disney Channel (I hate those bastards). The acting was better than I thought, and I liked the story. And the first half was great. However, even in the first part of the film, the visual effects were shit. I also hated that the one instrument they used for the film's score was a guitar. There was not enough action in the film and when there was, it didn't thrill me. And the baseball scene was fucking ridiculous. Twilight was a film that I didn't like, but I also didn't hate, and if they change some things around, this could become a great series. But for the Twilight fans, what more can they ask for?… Expand

The dialogue is poor at best and utterly atrocious if not. The script feels as if it was written by an 8 year old with a vocabulary of around 25 words: Edward: do you like the rain? Bella: no i don't like the rain, i don't like anything cold and wet (worth noting these abysmal actors stutter their way through the lines, straining at an attempt to portray high school love, but frequently missing the mark and just showing themselves to be poor actors) The plot is nonsensical and horrendous, the support cast don't help at all. And did i mention, the dialogue is awful. Gets a three for the scenes which weren't utterly appalling, and for the unintentionally witty lines (see above) and my personal favourite: Edward: hold on spider monkey (aimed at Bella) not spider girl, or spider woman, or even spider lady, no..... spider monkey!… 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.

The special effects are barely hidden, as is the value of our female lead. I am tempted to call her a heroine, but aside from rushing into a an obvious trap to trade her life for her family, she never does anything especially heroic. She praises her friend as a strong independent woman while showing little sign of being such herself. Perhaps I just don't see it as a man, but Edward does not seem to be as "beautiful" as he is described. The re-imagination of the vampire legends does allow the story to avoid certain classic pitfalls of vampire media, but Meyer seems to be intent on keeping the general convention of women intact. That is to say, if they do not have some supernatural powers, they are pathetic. At least Bella shows some desire to become a vampire toward the end.… Expand

Just an awful, awful movie. It's clear that if you don't fall within the 12-16 teen girl range that this movie targets you won't find it at all entertaining or bearable. I had to stop watching half way through.

This movie is badly directed and has some of the worst acting i have seen in years. There are worst movies yes...

Twilight is a small nudge This movie is badly directed and has some of the worst acting i have seen in years. There are worst movies yes... Glitter for example but that was in theaters for less than a week before most theaters pulled it. Twilight is a small nudge above that but it's cult like following boosted it's popularity and box office numbers. Any movie that actually has a budget bigger than what's in your bank account is better than this movie. The lack of character development, bad acting, bad special effects and horrible directing and shooting simply makes this one of the worst "wide-release" movies ever. Simply put... If the books never existed and this was just another vampire movie... it would have lost money and you wouldn't be reading this right now.… Expand

The Movie and the books are total crap. It makes no sense that a vampire wouldn't kill other humans not suck human blood and go out in the open light. This movie is a poor exucise for a vampire film.-G.A.T.E.T.V. Van Helsing & Blade.

Hopefully by 18 you'll understand that you're not supposed to drop your entire life and family cause of some young male, especially one that wants to kill you. I literally felt colorblind for most of the movie since, even though colors were present, they were so washed out with post-production that it felt like a high-quality re-envisioning of Blue Moon (which was MUCH more entertaining.) The lead actors (whose names I do not care to remember) were terrible. Stuttering beyond the point where stuttering is still socially acceptable, acting nervous and sketchy, and trying too hard. The vampire "family" was a hilarious and sad joke, and the diamond-skin... thats a serious WTF. The bottom line is this: If you want vampires, read Anne Rice prior to 1998. If you want a sappy teen romance filled with abstinence and drug avoidance and vampires that are socially conscience, don't feed on humans, and can walk in the sunlight, rent this crap.… Expand

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

Wow, it sure did suck. The film is atrocious and fails to deliver anything that a romance or vampire film should have. It has boring, 1-dimensional, cardboard characters who have some of the worst acting abilities (Especially the guy who plays Edward) I've ever seen in a film. The dialogue was really bad, thanks to the cliched, hackneyed script. The music soundtrack is horrible, and stands as one of the worst film soundtracks I have ever heard. The CGI effects were utterly appalling, and I've seen better CGI in the 90's. The film also does not meet certain requirements vampire films are supposed to have, such as the fact the vampires sparkle like diamonds in the sunlight. I don't mind if a few things get changed up a bit in a vampire film, but vampires die in sunlight. It's been a requirement for the last few centuries. By the way, whoever says this is the best romance since Romeo and Juliet is an idiot.… Expand

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.

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.
