As a HUGE Twilight fan, I was there at the midnight premier, but I left disappointed. Book adaptations are hard, how true to the book do you stay because of time constraints? I think the problem was that they tried to stay TOO true to the book. Everything with Bella and Edward felt so rushed. They had great chemistry, but I still wanted more time to develop their relationship. All of a sudden they were in love and I didn't feel it yet. So much extra time was spent on the ancillary characters (such as school friends and even parents) that even I had trouble getting them all straight. They could have been in the background and still served a purpose without introducing all of them. Focus should have been on B & E, not other characters.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
