I thought the movie was great! I am a huge fan of the whole book series, and Stephenie Meyer's writing in general, but I really thought they did a great job on the movie. The actors were great, I can't wait until they do all of the books, so we see on film the characters that we have seen in our heads while reading! I do however warn the older fans, I'm 28 and yes thats older, that the screaming crazed teenybop fans will annoy the heck out of you during the movie...so be prepared! If you want to see the movie in a some what mature audience, you need to go to a late show, it should be past the little-ones curfew!!! This is good for all ages, its a 2 thumbs up and more! Read the book first, then go see the movie!!
