fit the book

Rating: 10/10 (20 November 2009)

Chris Weitz did a great job especially with the effects, this film was so much closer to the book then twilight was which made a huge difference for me. i thought it was well worth it to pay to go see it even with a few screaming girls. the wolves looked a lot better in the movie then they did in the previews and honestly they looked great for what they're supposed to be if you read the books. there were of course a few things added into the movie to make it more interesting to people who haven't read the books but overall i don't think they hurt the movie at all. some scenes were changed but you have to expect that, they cannot make it exactly like the novel, if you read the books you have to realize it would take a lot of money and be quite difficult to make these movies identical to them. overall i thought the emotion conveyed was perfect, i felt the same emotions that i did while reading the book which is pretty much what you'd want to happen while watching a visual representation of a book you love. for anyone who loves the books, you should love the movie.
