Entertaining, clearly someone's fantasy so don't take it too seriously, not great acting

Rating: 5/10 (15 February 2015)

I have to say that the storyline at least - followed the books exactly. So thumbs up for following the storyline so well, in my opinion.
Unfortunately due to so much happening in the book I feel the movie was quite rushed and tried to fit in a lot of the 'interesting' scenes all at once and it just became an overdose. I can definitely see how it would seem too much and a bit fake, however I would say in the books (although unrealistic but who cares its meant to be a fantasy) its SLIGHTLY more acceptable.
But for those who have read the books and know the storyline, I think if you can look passed a few cringe moments and perhaps some not-so-great acting bits, this film can be enjoyable. It is definitely not fantastic but it is entertaining in its own way and if you are looking for something extremely girlie and romantic watch it.
Overall, I would say: acting was less than average (could be better), cinematography was OK and the music at some points was nice, the sexual scenes were tasteful and not too crazy, it was entertaining and I would recommend it to people that LOVEEE romantic girlie films or people that love Twilight - its very very similar.
