Whatizit?

Rating: 3/10 (12 January 2010)

Vampire story? Love story? Fantasy tale? The whole thing does not seem to consolidate into anything of substance.
Also, I cannot tell whether Kristen Stewart's acting or her character is to blame, but Bella is quite annoying. Who in the world would fall for such a lame girl? She seems permanently confused and frustrated, not passionately in love, which makes the whole affair dull. There is nothing assuring about this Bella girl. Yeah, I suppose that having feelings for a vampire should burden anybody, let alone a teenager, but this story borders on futility.
It's a matter of opinion, of course, but I don't understand how a movie like this could become a hit. At least it isn't gory.
