I have never seen a better movie adapted from a book in my life. I am a mom of three, and just got turned on to this series this year (2008), by my 15 yr old daughter, who is completely obseesed with " Twilight ". I understood her obsession as soon as I was done with the first book. Then I learned of the movie, and bought tickets in advance. While we waited in line, excitement was almost too much to bare, and finally the movie began, and I don't remeber breathing after that. I emplore all out there, that if you want to see a really great movie, go see "Twilight", you'll be glad you did!!!
