I read the entire Twilight series, and fell in love with the love story of Bella & Edward. The movie fell very short of my expectations. The actors playing Bella, Charlie, Jacob, James, and Alice were great, but overall the acting was poor and the flow of the movie was not smooth. The running scenes were super-cheesy! I hope that the teeny-boppers liked it, but as an adult viewer, I thought it sucked.
