Kristen holds back the chemistry

Rating: 10/10 (25 March 2009)

i am one of the few people who haven't read the book before seeing the movie apparently, and so i guess that makes my perspective under-represented a bit. i liked the movie a lot, nd think both actors did a great job. the movie might not have corresponded as well to the book as the readers might have hoped, but thats how movie translations are. i really want to read the book now, so a transition from movie-to-book must work better
i think all the actors did a good job. i thought Kristen Stewart did a really good job at first, but from her interview with movie phone with rob and Stephanie, she seemed really snobbish and seemed not to be in to the movie at all. the first half of the movie i've watched about 20 times because i thought the tension between the two characters really exciting. but again, referring to the interview on youtube, after making the movie Kristen admits she knows nothing about rob. and thats where the second half of the movie gets sooo boring.
they're supposed to be in love with each other, yet there is absolutely no chemistry. Bella acts so distant from Edward when they are supposed to be together, and it is really so frustrating.
p.s. Edward make girlfriends reevaluate their relationships (jk). he's the perfect boyfriend!!! :) he's really charming in the movie
