the movie was fantastic!!! it did not cover everything, but that was to be expected given the transition from book to screen. if you decided to see twilight without previously reading the books you may have had trouble following. the film could have been horrific, and i still would have gone to see it more than once. just witnessing the story come to life was worth it. i was very excited as i went twice on opening day. and i'm sure i will go at least twice more. as for the sequels...i would like to see more of the realtionships being developed between our beloved characters. i would recommend this film and stephenie meyers' saga to ANYONE. i consider this my favorite love story of all time.
