Yeah- so…. I really think Twilight was the worst movie ever. Or, at least, the worst movie I’ve seen in recent memory (not that I get to see that many movies these days).
How disappointing. After absolutely LOVING the 2 1/2 books I’ve read (I’m half-way through Eclipse) I thought that the movie would at least be “ok”. I found myself laughing through scenes that were not supposed to be funny.
The meadow scene, specifically, had me stomping my feet in hysterics. I think I actually might have snorted once or twice (causing snickers in the rows in front of me).
To be fair, I don’t think ANYONE can act the level of magnetism between Edward and Bella that’s written in the book- because, in my view, it just doesn’t exist. With no reference point in real life, how are actors (especially super young teenage actors) supposed to act it out?
If anything- I had a fun night out… pre-Twilight beer, and a post-Twilight dinner.. and much needed kid-free time!

I dont agree..Twilight rocks! I watch twilight movie last night and it was awesome.

Twilight was terrible!
I mean, the books were beyond fabulous, but the movie was terrible!why:
1 neither kristen nor Robert are good actors.
2 Robert pattison is ugly. Without the makeup on, he’s cute. As Edward GROSS!
2 bella pouts the whole movie and acts surprised, ride, and snobby.
3 funny in all the wrong places
5 the cullens house looked like a tin shack
4 seriously guys, if you think this movie was even somewhat good please watch it again. I know that the books were great and no movies going to ever be that good but really.

haha, you speak the truth….this is exactly how I felt after seeing the midnight showing! I loved the books and, it’s true that it would be hard for any actors to act out the magnetism between Bella and Edward, but this movie was just ridiculous over dramatic in some parts. I felt like most actors were okay, but, honeslty, Kristen Stewart disappointed me a lot. She took everything SO seriously, was there one scene in which she didn’t make everyone involved (as well as yourself) feel amazingly awkward? haha, it was hilarious. I thought Robert Pattinson did a great job, but the director was a bit cracked up in my opinion. She just made everything seem really fake, but it also made things quite enjoyable, aka, laughing in my seat the entire time! haha. Ah, wow. Have got to love it.

I agree. It was terrible. Hopefully they’ll do better next time.

I agree completely, but I more upset than anything. Like I understand that what happens between Bella and Edward will never be able to be acted out, but they could have at least TRIED. I wasn’t expecting the greatest movie, but I didn’t like ANYTHING the director did, except for maybe the Italian comment by Emmett and Charlie with his shotgun… but apart from that, everything was very disappointing… 😦 Everything was just so… unnatural… 😦 So ya, as it pains me as a die-hard Twilight fan to say, this was the worst movie I have ever seen…

i didn’t like pattinson he was overacting sia sa ibang part…. kristen is ok though,”bella” isn’t in her (bella is the epitome of self sacrifice, not really caring if Edward kills her in the end) and it really doesn’t show the depth of emotions between Bella and Edward.
i know it’s low budget, but they surely could’ve done the screenplay a lot better. I mean, i’d expected some parts to be cut, skimming on info (carlisle and their vegetarian diet) but they’ve also inserted scenes that are unnecessary anyway.
I really wished they made sure that pattinson showed no stubble, and that nikki (so disappointed with this- magnificent and statuesque, she is not) showed no dark roots — vampires are supposedly frozen in their perfect state…
oh well…now i’m back to the books (3rd or fourth– don’t care :)…
i’m sticking to my earlier choices for the cast in my mind: Edward: Tom Sturridge or Gaspard Ulliel for starters…

I agree with your choice of actors. They are just more Edward than Robert pattison

horrible unintelligent worst most predictable movie ever. I made it through an hour and had to stop. Horrible acting, horrible story (i never read the book) just all around horrible over cliched movie. Im mad I even chose to attempt to watch this movie instead of setting myself on fire.

I was actually embarrassed to be in the movie house!! I was so excited to watch it … liked the books… had high hopes… but PLEASE!! I was alternating between cringing and laughing inappropriately at the “serious” scenes. Unless you are a horny teenage girl with low standards, this movie is NOT for you!!
Kristen Stewart’s only pose is that of awkwardness and (presumbly) constipation. She has the range of a wooden plank …. in a coma.
The movie is an homage to teenage angst and bad acting! Halfway through I tried to commit suicide by hacking the corner of my popcorn box against my wrists. When that didnt work I stabbed at my eyeballs with the straw from my jumbo coke, which served only to dislodge my contact lenses. With this new perspective, I gained an understanding of the vision of the director / producer – blurred, unfocussed and bleedy from me eyeballs!! I left 2 minutes before the end and pretended I was leaving the movie next door.
