Too much fun

Rating: 8/10 (21 February 2014)

I have a different view of these Twilight movies. First, I had tons of fun watching them in a marathon week with my 23 year old and 13 year old daughters. We would make popcorn, light candles, turn on the huge lava lamp and settle in for enjoyment. The movies were made based on YA fiction so what do the other reviewers expect? For what they were intended, they were a blast to watch. As a parent, I was highly impressed with the values and morals promoted in the films. Yes, the special effects, acting, and dialogue was not profound, but it did what it was intended to do: entertain the adolescents and those with a fun loving attitude, and make money These films were never set to be serious or portray anything other than fictional teen/ young adult drama. Lighten up, people! Oh, and the actors look better in character as vampires than in real life.
