A great story for teenage girls

Rating: 8/10 (14 April 2014)

The movie was directed by Catherine Hardwicke, the story was written by Stephanie Meyer and rewritten by Melissa Rosenberg. The age rating is 12.
The film is about a 17-year-old girl (Bella Swan), who is moving from Phoenix to Forks to live with her father. In school she makes friends easily. Finally she meets Edward Cullen in the biology lesson. The first meeting is a bit scary but after he saves her life, they become a couple. She thinks his behaviour is strange and mysterious and adds the pieces together: She finds out that Edward is a vampire. When a group of other vampires terrifies the town, Bella gets in danger. Will Edward save her again? We think that the movie is well made. It's a great story for teenage girls, who love mysterious boys and a bit of fantasy action. The characters are strong personalities and fit together well. The music makes every situation more intense, which is good because the actors cannot show their feelings really well. The special effects underline the actions of the vampires. They also help the audience to understand how vampires move and their way to be.
