Twilight the movie vs. Twilight the Book

Rating: 7/10 (5 December 2008)

I totally agree. Although I enjoyed how the characters were depicted and felt they were quite developed, I felt the rest of the movie was too choppy. After being a fan of all the Twilight Saga for so long, I thought that the movie should have been allow an extra 1/2 to 1 hour more to convey the full story of the first book. I think if it had been directed in the style of the Harry Potter movies or Narnia, much of the depth of the book would not be lost as it was translated into a movie. I appreciate the fact that they took on this venture, but felt it was not all I hoped it to be. But, alas I have now seen it online several times, and still crave to see more of how Edward and Bella's lives will be depicted in New Moon when it comes out in movie form.
