Twilight - 2 Disc Special Edition

You don't have to be a 13 year-old girl to watch Twilight. It may be a very sweet and idealistic film revolving around a fantasy romance, but it is also a very watchable mild thriller.

A really good film! I read the book before seeing the film and I was not dissapointed. Although of course the book was better than the film as there was a lot more included in the book but it doesn't mean it was bad. The acting in it was really good and the effects were too.

The stunning performances from Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart build up an amazing atmosphere of young love and sexual tension. The film is based upon the award winning book from the Twilight Saga by Stephanie Meyer and makes its incredible screen début with stunning visual effects, incredible casting and a gripping love story that will have you on the edge of your seat.

This is one of my favourite films ever. I love the 2 main characters and I love that it involves vampires. The love is so strong between them and I loved the way they managed to make the film show that. I do think the book is a lot better than the film but I know that they have to leave parts out to keep the flow and drama. The special features are also worth a watch as there are some interesting things on there. I'm really looking forward to the next film.

Just when you thought your vein of ore was exhausted you come upon the TV solution: Young Sherlock Holmes, Young Indiana Jones, Tom & Jerry Babies, The Prequel, The Postquel, whatever. You get another audience, and you don't extend many brain cells or cash using writers, sets or effects. This piece of garbage is Dracula for yoof who have never heard of Dracula, a sort of Spartacus Babies for those who started going to the local Cineplex when Gladiator was showing. It's set in moody blue-cast rainy Washington State, dismal just like many of the X-Files which were made there or just across the border in Canada, just when the only big thing in town that happened was a generation ago, and that was Rambo, First Blood. Or maybe it was Rambo: First Blood. Just like that film it was always raining. That is enough to make you wish it was set anywhere else. All those big Hollywood bucks to spend, the entire North American continent to choose from, and they had to choose this one locale. OK, it's vampires in the New World. Or maybe it should have been called Vampires: The Beginning.
It's unintentionally funny: The boy keeps coming up to the girl/love interest in several scenes and hitting on her by saying to her that she really must stay away from him. That of course just makes her want to be his girlfriend. It's aimed at the 12-17 audience who think that's it's cool.
No doubt it will be followed by Twilight 2: The Dawn, or maybe even Twilight 3: The Yawn.
Direction: It's poor. Acting: it saves hiring real stars.
The script: Garbage 101, or maybe Garbage: The Script.
If I had my life to lead all over again, I would do everything all over again, and in the same way and in the same order, but I wouldn't watch Twilight again.
