Just Plain Horrible

Rating: 1/10 (23 February 2009)

I watched this with my wife, who has read all the books and really enjoyed them. I myself have not read the books, but I figured "hey, it's about vampires, how bad can it be?" Boy was I wrong. We both thought it was horrible. First off the writing was terrible. Too many clichés and the jokes were not funny at all. The concept was good and the movie could have been great. But it was entirely way too slow. I was bored throughout most of the movie. There were two great scenes, that were really well done. Other than that... blah! The baseball game with the vampires was very well done and I also enjoyed the fight scene. Unfortunately there will probably be sequels since so many die hard fans and teenyboppers seem to be entirely wrapped up in this regardless that the movie was a complete dud.
