THE HONEST TRUTH!! A good start!!

Rating: 8/10 (18 January 2009)

As every fan knows the series is outstanding and this movie didn't get blessed with the same funding as say the Harry potter first hit movie: The Philosophers Stone, but it did very will with what it had to work with.
I new virtually nothing about the Twilight series when I when to see this with my brother and from the first narrated line to the ending credits I for got to blink...It was great.
Some of the effects didn't blow my mind but like I said they did what they could with what money they had. The casting was well done with a very few exceptions but all round well picked.
I've since read New Moon and I'm currently working on Eclipse (both astonishing) and I can see that Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are well portraying the roles given to them; they will do well throughout the remainder of the series.
Twilight will not be the best in this movie series because Twilight made a lot of money, and funding should be no problem for the remaining films.
If your kids are over 12 this movie will thrill the family If the men in the house can look over the very blunt (and enjoyable) love story and observe the breath of fresh ideas for and extremely popular theme of Vampires and ... Well I wont ruin the surprises yet to come...
Well done Stephenie Meyer, Well done!!
