Rating: 8/10 (24 December 2009)

I've read some of the reviews that people have written about the movie Twilight and how it was the god-awful movie, with bad acting and stupid lines in it. And how the movie was so different than the novel. First of all what movie isn't the same as the novel? Personally, I wish they would just make a movie based on the book from beginning to end, instead of moving things around from here to there, etc; if the book was a bestseller to begin with, then why wouldn't the movie be as well, the way the author intended to be. But that's just me.
Get back to the movie. The movie was not god awful and bad acting as most suggested. Apparently, there are a lot of closed minded people that watch the movies that Hollywood produces. Which there are a lot of them that, is a lot terrible than the Twilight movie. Why is it too hard to believe that a vampire, or a man, for that matter, to have been waiting for a girl to come along, one he can fall in love with and spend eternity with? According to movies, true love always exist. As far as Bella goes, she was a lonely girl, who happens to fall in love with a boy, who turns out to be a vampire. Who Knew? LOL. Why is so hard for people to have this concept between true love and crushes. Which is true love between the two leads of the movie and the book series for those who read the series and know how it ends. True love conquerers all?
A vampire sparkling in the sunlight? Hmm, interesting in own right, but I was not so closed minded when I first seen the movie-which I saw first, before reading the book-to say WTF? What Stephanie had in mind when she wrote it, well, that is her decision and all. Do we have to stick to the fork-lore of the movies? And if the real vampires do exist, who are we to say what they can do or can't do in the sunlight. Keep an open mind people.
The movie is well written and well acted by all members of the cast. As far as Charlie goes, why wasn't he more interested in Bella than they had you believe? When the scene with Bella first arrived in Forks, they got to her room and she said "One thing about Charlie, he doesn't hover." That was true as it could be.. Charlie acted like he loved Bella, but didn't care about what she did? As a father, I would care who my teenage daughter was hanging out with...That was the only part I didn't understand in the movie.
The movie was a lot better than most of you gave it. As to the directors and authors, keep the movie the same as the novel. would be a interesting notion indeed. There are a lot worse movies than this one thats for sure..
