This is a wonderful film for tween girls.

Rating: 8/10 (28 November 2008)

I am surprised that some viewers chose to rate this film so low on the totem pole. They must first keep in mind that the books (written by Stephenie Meyer) were written with the "tween" girl population in mind, and I dare say that Mrs. Meyer has created a wonderfully imaginable world for her vampires and the little lamb who joined their clan. There is no grisly throat ripping, skin slashing or blood spewing to speak of, and in my opinion, the absence of those things make this movie much more acceptable for so young an age group. My daughters LOVED it, I was impressed with it myself. So, if you go see Twilight, make sure you keep in mind that this film wasn't created/directed/written by Steven Spielberg or George Lucas. If you want the full-on "severly realistic" vampire stuff...watch True Blood.
