Twilight  Watch it twice then decide.

Rating: 7/10 (4 December 2008)

I have seen Twilight twice now and the first time I saw it, all I did was criticized it. Did not enjoy it one bit and thought it should have stayed true to the story. However when my friends dragged me along to see it again, I enjoyed it this time. Go into the cinema with an open mind is my advice. Don't think it will be anything like the book. Films are meant to be quick. Harry Potter is not true to the book however everyone enjoyed it. The same needs to be seen with Twilight. The only thing that annoyed me the most about Twilight was the directing and camera directing. Many of the close ups were not needed, yes this was a romantic film but there is a line to be drawn. Catherine Hardwicke I believe is not a great director and someone else should have directed the film to make the characters stronger. I felt they were missing something on screen. If you have read the book and did not like it the first time because you expected much more, go see it again. I'm glad I did. I accepted it for what it was much more the second time.
