This was the best movie I have ever seen. Edward and Bella had loads of chemistry (those who don't think so should get some glasses, or realize we aren't all nerds and we aren't talking about chemistry as in science.) My experience watching it first day was intense. As soon as Edward showed up in the cafeteria, everyone started clapping, cheering and some were even crying. It was wayyy weird but still, cool! I don't think that whats-hos-face should have played Bella's dad though, he seemed all uptight and like, emotion-less. They left out alot of funny lines from the book, that I missed. But still, good! Overall this was an outstanding movie and I recommend it to everyone. My 8 year old brot
Good action scenes, decent humour, overall better than most "hype" movies out there.
Very disapointing. As a fan of the book, it was very poorly made I thought.
LOVED IT!! it was the best movie of the year i loved it! better than all of the harry potter movies!
This movie was great, at the beginning it seemed odd, and not much money was put into it, but later on in the movie, it was the best romantic film i have ever saw.
I think this movie is awsome and i also think everyone should have a Edward in thier life.
omg thats was the best movie i ever saw i have read all the books and they are so good the movie wasn't as good as the book but movies are never the same and the books and i already read them so i know what haddens
Not great, not bad. Just remember that any book tunrned into a movie will be condensed and reworked a bit. The story line is choppy in the movie. I found it hard to believe that Steph. consulted. I only read the book 2 wks ago and so pictured the actors while reading. My view didn't match with the movie. Also, even though I'm not sure why James (and crew)was in the movie so much, he is quite tasty.
This movie was TERRIBLE! The acting was horrible, the lead characters lacked chemistry, and the movie was slow. Edward was more creepy than mysterious and Bella looked constipated everytime there was a bit of trouble. My advice is to stick to the book or be ready for a disappointment.
I think the movie was alright. It was really choppy and just way too fast. I didn't see the chemistry between Edward and Bella, nor how they're love starting to form. I think it could have been better. However, i'll still be excited for new moon if they do make it, and hopefully it'll be better. P.S. Did anyone notice how many times Kristen Stewart blinked and studderd? It was getting really annoying after some time.
it was reallly cool and a little romantic
The movie could have been better, perhaps with more of a budget. I think RB plays a good Edward, though stop the eye bulging thing please! I hope with enough hype book 2 is made into a movie as well.
good movie, but didnt feel the love story between edward and bella at all. everything was awkward between them. seemed like it was poorly acted but cant really tell.overall good movie but i was extremely dissapointed.
much beter than I would've thought for it being a movie that was greated with only 30 some odd million dollars spant on it
the movie was great they did leave many parts out but either way its not like they can make exactly like the book it would be impossible but in my opinion it was awesome!
The movie was great for a movie - Yes the special effects werent perfect - but it was a low budget film - what do you expect? And of course you cant cram all the essential info of the book into a 2hr long movie but overall i loved the movie and am looking forward to the next one!
Jasper is hot!!!!!!!!!!
it is not worth seeing
What a massive failure.
this is the best movie ever!!1
I was completely engrossed by the twilight novel and i found the movies just as good, oh course they are oscar worthy but i still found the story line very enjoyable and acting was good, overall the movie met my standards and might of even exceed them a bit. the movie reminded me how much i loved the series
The movie was good, although i have to agree with many comments, it was NOT as good as the book, the book is wayyy better because of the depth and detail it is more believable. However, EDWARD was sooo catching. I was disapointed because people in the theatre were laughing whn it wasnt supposed to be funny!
twilight was amazingly amazing !!! :P
love it
the movie was okk, But seriously need more edward and bella parts, thay didnt have half the good parts from the book and instead really lame parts. But still loved it especially cause of EDWARDD
As bad as the book.
I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it is a really amazing movie:)
eek, it was horrible
the BOOKS are my favorite. they capture so much love and emotion and i was really exited to see that in the movie. but to my dissapointment the actors did a very very poor job at portraying that. robert (who plays edward) hasnt even read the books, to really get into the charector i think you need to read and feel the emotion bella and edward have towords eachother. bella fits the looks but her acting is so poor that it takes her out of charector completly. i LOVE twilight dont get me wrong but im gonna stick with the books.
this movie is AWESOME
Loved it
Fast paced compared to the book. Overall an awesome movie though, must see!
Worst movie ever!!! Poor acting. I could have did a better job that they did lol. Didn't develop the love story as well as it should have and did not even go in order or follow the same story line as the book. (What the heck) They sooo should have waited until they had money to put into the movie. Could so tell they were on a low budget. I went with a group and none of us will be going too see the rest of the movies.
Best movie in the world!! Fantastic!! All the actors were well put together and acted. Nothing was wrong with the movie. Well sure they skipped a few scenes, but what movie doesn't? This movie has definitely captured my heart and I can't wait to see the rest of the Twilight movies! Well done Catherine!
I'm very disappointed it the movie..Ofcourse I didnt expect it to be as good as the book but really this is quite sad. No chemistry between Bella and Edward...instead of looking graceful edward look confused througout the movie. The plot did not flow..and the worst was the makeup.I mean what was up with that..specially Carslie's makeup...I mean his forehead to chin was a different color than his neck..you really should get makeup artists who know how to put on foundation=| I hope they do better with new moon if it comes out
You can't expect Holloywood to be able fit the entire book into a hour and half - two hour movie so you can't expect everything to be as it is in the book. I think they tried to focus on the important parts of the book. I think the movie was fantastic and I am anxious to see if they will indeed make New Moon. I think the book was brought to life well!
Special effects were quite shoddy, but as said they had to work with a low budget. Personally, I thought the movie moved quite fast. How can you fall in "love" with someone in 10 minutes movie time? It didn't show their romantic struggles to an extent. The Actors weren't terrible, but not terrific. Edward seemed more like a joke, rather than cool, collected, and sizzling hot.("Hold on tight, spider-monkey?!!)I had a different idea about his exterior too- broad, muscular, wavy brown hair, kind of like Clark Kent. Anway, moving on. Bella was alright, but not the stubborn, passionate gal we read about in Twilight. If I had never held Twilight in my hands and went to this movie, I'm su
WEll first off. There could have been fangs...the movie was tooo tooo cheesy without fangs! Like how could they tear through an animal with no fangs. ALso ..acting was to miserable..no excitment. Add HUMOUR..please..makes any movie better. Like harry potter a lil humour here and there. And the movie was wayy to jumpy..jumped from scene to scene! Too confusing. I went with my boyfriend and he had not read the book. So I had to explain what was going on through the whole movie..cuz it didnt make sense. I read the book..so I knew. And lastly..special efffects BIG FAT ZERO. If you want people to get into the movie..MAKE IT REAL. DAMN I WISH I COULD DIRECT THIS MOVIE. would have been a hit!
wonderful.
I read all 4 books, and i thought the movie was great!! Obviously the movie is never good as the book, but I think they did a great job with the movie. Also, some people had very high expectations, which is why they did not like the movie. I loved the books and the movie and hope the other movies are as great as this one =)
I really enjoyed the movie it wasn't the same as the book but it was still an awsome movie and I can't wait for them to make the other 3 into movies
The movie was horrible! The acting was bad, but it seemed like every actor was bad. I believe this is the result of a bad director! The movie was true to the story but it could have been much much better even with a small budget.
lol. This is the movie of the year
it was nothing like the book they left out many parts
I loved the feel of the film adaptation of Twilight. I loved that it was not an over-the-top commercial production. I love that the film added and altered scenes, it would have been boring to have watched a literal translation of the book. As far as critics of the special effects and cheezy moments, did you not read the book? I loved the books, but let's face it, we're not talking the quality of Tanya Huff when it comes to vampire stories. Good think too, as this is something my daughter is reading and watching. I am over the moon in anticipation of New Moon on film. I hope that with the success of the first film, the second doesn't become overly commercialized. I think the critics need to b
I think that the whole movie was horrable compared to the book and as for the cast, I didn't think they were all that talented. I'm sorry to everyone who does, but to me, they could have done a lot better, with the casting and the scenes.
movie was amazing from a movie persepective, though the acting wasnt the best. Compared to the book it wasnt as good. but overall I LOVED THE MOVIE
You can't expect a movie to be as good as the book, they can 't put 500+ pages in 2 hours. The acting was very poor though. Rob is not a great actor, it's true. The make up was very poor, nothing was right, I was not disappointed by how they changed the story (a little bit) that was expected, but I thought the acting would be good and it was not. Like when Edward sees Bella in the bio lab for the first time, wth was that performance from rob????? he looked like he was gonna throw up!!! I'm really disapointed by Rob's acting. I'd rather see an "ok looking" good actor than a cute vampire who doesn't even know how to stare properly at Bella :( And Carlisle was too freaking white!! wth?? the m
PLEASE make New Moon and do the books more justice. While I thought the movie was okay, and I think I'll enjoy it after watching it a seond time, I think the lack of funding made some parts cheesy and have someone else write the script. I didn't think the characters in the movie showed even half the connection that Bella and Edward had in the book. BUT Rob Pattinson is the PERFECT Edward, so he definitely needs to come back. :) He was exactly what I pictured.
