Totally Disappointing....

Rating: 5/10 (15 March 2009)

I am not big fan of the book itself but always thought the movie could be much better. However, the movie disappointed me to the limit. Lets count the bad things about this movie. First of all cast was poor. All of them acted horribly.
Kristen Stewart as Bella was completely expressionless. I think shes good at not showing emotions and she has proved it through this movie. It was extremely annoying to see her totally blank face when the scene demanded some powerful display of emotions. Robert Pattinson was equally bad in the beginning. The scene in which Bella for the first time sits in a biology class with Edward was funny due to the hilarious facial expressions of Pattinson. Then the best part was when class ends and he rushes out. In the novel, it was mentioned that there was a grace in his walk but unfortunately in the movie it was completely opposite. However, Pattinson improved a bit in the later stage of the movie.
Second bad thing about the movie was its bad beginning scenes. In the beginning it looked like a B-grade movie. The scenes could not be adopted the way they are in the book like Bella visiting Edward's home. The movie improved a bit in the end when tracker was involved.
The sound tracks were a bit better but the overall direction was very weak. There was no drama and thrill in the movie till the end. The movie came out totally opposite to what was initially expected. I would recommend it to the die-hard fans of Twilight book because only they can have the stamina to watch such a poor movie. Its a completely forgettable movie indeed, a big disappointment.
