No Justice, Should be recalled

Rating: 1/10 (27 December 2008)

*** YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED< POSSIBLE SPOILERS**** You know how when they figure out a bad shipment of food has been sent out they do a national recall? Well they should nationally recall this film because it is horrible. The only good thing that came out of it was the fact it peaked my interest to read the books. I figured there was no way the books could be as bad as the movie with the huge amount of fan base they had. Where was the love, the fire, or for better lack of appropriate term, the bite. Stewart as Bella was just pathetic, Pattinson as Edward was demeaning and why wasn't Alice given more screen time? It is a shame these actors were forced to endorse a horrible film.
When I read the books I wanted to be Bella. I believed I could be because she was shy, average and had no pretense at all. The movie Bella? I wouldn't be her in a million years. Could she not put two full sentences together? I mean good god I won't care if I never hear um again as long as I live. She was not convincing in this role. Even the fight scene with her was awful. All the screaming gave me a headache and when she was "dying" the way her eyes crossed was laughable. I mean come on, who "dies" with their eyes crossed?
Edward was just awful. I fell in love with the Book Edward. He makes you wish and dream of finding someone to love you as much as he loves Bella. The movie Edward? AWFUL!!!In the book Edwards voice is magical in the movie it gives you a headache. Next time pick someone who can speak English fluently. In an interview Pattinson says that he did not practice his English accent for this movie. Well guess what it really shows and you could have used some practice. I hope they hire him a voice coach for New Moon and Stewart some acting lessons.
On a positive note, I love Charlie. He is so sweet and I loved the actor that played James. He would def. scare me. If you love the books, skip the movie. It barely follows the story line and the books are a better investment. Time and money wise.
