If it were 12-40 year old men going to see teenage girls take their shirts off. Someone would call the cops.

Rating: 3/10 (17 May 2010)

I didn't read the novels, let's get that out of the way. I'm not here to review the novels, I'm here to review the movie. I saw this movie with my girlfriend. She didn't even enjoy it that much. Let's start with the acting, if you can call it that. Kristen showed no emotion at all. I was told that's what her character was sort of supposed to be like. Whenever she was on the screen it felt like was watching a bas Jr.High play. Robert wasn't very convincing either. It was weird seeing him in this role. He was good enough in Harry Potter but he seemed to be trying too hard. Taylor was the best of the three, but that's not saying much. He was the only believable main role. The film story. Was so empty. I could tell that these novels were never supposed to be on the big screen just form seeing the movies. There were parts that just kind of zipped by. The story itself seems like a load of bull to me, but thats just me. The film. At least the CGI improved. Parts that really bugged me. When Jacob took his shirt off. All the girls swooned and cheered. I almost yelled back "You're all perverts!" but felt that to be unnecessary. But come on, that's what I'd be called if a cheered at an 18 year old girl taking her shirt off. When the native guy died. I didn't know his character enough to really care. Bad job film, bad job. Characters attitudes. Well, I didn't know that girls felt that people who basically stalk you, are depressed at every little thing, sneak in your room while you sleep, and never age were so attractive. And there's another side to this shown in the movie. The woman who was attacked by her "werewolf" lover. I call that abuse, but again, thats just me. Parts I liked. The credits, my suffering ended. And when Jacob said "You're making me angry!" I had to stop from laughing. I leaned to my girlfriend and said "You won't like me when I'm angry. I turn into a big green wolf with purple pants!" Work. Yeah, I worl at a theatre. There were people lined up before I even showed up for the midnight show. SEVEN FRICKEN HOURS early. And they must have been 13 or 14 years old. I didn't get a break for the next three days at work. FInal thoughts. Dryer than toast. All in all a bad film. Don't expect much more from the one coming out next month. A bunch of nerds playing dungeons and dragons for two weeks could play through a more convincing story than this. Vampires can't read minds, make you feel pain by looking at you, can't see the future, and DIE in sunlight. They don't f%&$ing sparkle! This series went from a book that had potential to a complete and obsessive mess. I fear my children will be going to school with a bunch of Edward's, Bella's, and Jacob's. I'm done ranting. Not a very good movie. *** out of 10 for trying. Stick with bloodsucking killers and violent beasts.
