Fans Never Saw It Coming!!

Rating: 3/10 (20 January 2011)

Catherine Hardwicke directed this film and I am sure the fans are thankful she did not direct any of the sequels. The blue tone, used like sepia of the past was too much and added little to the dramatic-ness of the film. It was a big gamble to do so, and it looks like Miss Hardwicke lost the bet.
However, seeing Kristen Stewart starring as the beautiful Bella Swan was an added plus, she is a delightful actress and should be seen in more dramatic films. The other star of the film, playing Edward Cullen is the little known Robert Pattinson, somewhat of a Harry Potter wannabe. The chemistry of the actors was average, nothing special. The film seems to drag on as the middle approaches, and it can be boring. The ending was the best part, because well, it was over! The only dreadful thing to do next was to wait for the sequel. Was "Twilight" worthy of a sequel? The answer, yes, somehow!
