If I could give it less then I would.

Rating: 1/10 (29 August 2009)

A mate and I watched this film, and it did not take us long to conclude that it was painfully awful to watch. The vampire's within the film cannot be considered to be vampire's, yes they have all the typical characteristics of a vampire. But the lore is still out of sync. Within this film vampire's are created via a different means to that of Dracula, and the most important difference is the idea that vampire's can walk around in the daylight, and most certainly do not sparkle.
This though is not the main problem with the film, as you can consider the idea of creative licencing, and maybe it would not matter if there was any explanation as to why this is the case. No there are other more pressing problems which must be addressed.
When you watch the idea of werewolves and vampires being in differing tribes and against one another, you can't help but think back to another vampire film which has a certain storyline that is similar. Underworld? Yes, you were thinking it too. Then again at least the underworld vampire's were not all depressives who wanted to end their lives, like Edward Cullen seems to wish to do.
More problems with this film? The script writing was terrible. The acting was even more terrible, but then you can't expect good acting in such a situation. The film is completely unbelievable, especially when you consider Bella Swann is possibly the most uninteresting character in a long history of uninteresting characters. There is no personality there with her, yet everybody seems to wish to be her friend, and instantly loves her, and most of all there is no chemistry between the main characters.
Honestly, I would have given this no stars if I was able to. It was so poor it was just ridiculous. I would not recommend this film to anybody. And if I do, I would only recommend it to teenage girls under the age of 13, because that is who it is aimed at.
