yeah. I disagree

I think the only reason someone would say that is because they didn't get or understand the movie. I loved it! I have read the book and am on the fourth and for a low budget film the special affects were great and the lead actors really caught the main characters. Sure there could have been a little more romance between Edward and Bella shown, and they shouldn't have done a close up on the characters, and the camera zoomed around to fast sometimes. But those were minor things that I got past quickly as I enjoyed the movie and let it sink in. The action/fight scene could have been longer but it was still good and I think it was short due to the budget. Maybe the budget affected their amount of time or film that they had in the camera. I have already seen this movie twice and am proudly taking a group of friends in 2 weeks to see it again. I give this movie ten stars! It's gotta be better than High School Musical 3. I heard that didn't do so well. Thats just my opinion though. New moon has gotten the green light and I am eagerly looking forward to seeing it. I think the movie was very entertaining, and had a good pace. Obviously it sounds like you guys set your expectations to high for a low budget film. Or tried to compare the book to the movie. Don't do that. I loved the baseball scene, the fight scene, the characters, the prom scene, everything! This movie is geared toward people of ALL ages. How old is your daughter? Maybe she was to young. The movie is not always going to be the same as the book. Maybe your son didn't like it because it was a romance. If that's the case take him to a horror movie next time that will give him nightmares for a few weeks. Being sarcastic obviously.
