Terrible

Rating: 1/10 (10 August 2011)

This film is despicable; totally disgusting. Its purpose is naught but appealing to young girls aged 10 to 14 in hopes of melting their hearts with bare-chested teenage boys. As for reviewing this film in a technical manner; of which it is hardly deserving; the acting is stale and soulless, the casting laughable (in that it caters to a specific group of the population; that is young females); and the direction terrible. The plot is obvious and bad and it betrays every legend that exists of vampires.
Seeing this film being as successful as it has in the box-office truly does make on think what has happened to the world. How one can write such a simple peace of teenage-girl catering drivel; find a designer to direct it, muster a few million dollars and cast a few unknown young pretty people to star in it. The "film"; a term it is hardly deserving of is as transparent as a republican promise and it makes for a roller coaster of disappointment and is truly difficult to bear even seeing once.
On a separate note,the later installations of this franchise are the worst of cash cows in the world and elaborate on the traits the first "film" exhibits. That is to say; they are even worse.
All in all; it's a disgrace to the business and an affront to the world of film.
