Let's start with this movie was obviously a hit. Every review supports the intense screaming and swooning throughout the theater. However, there is something I feel I must mention, since it has not been documented elsewhere. I found the essence of the story to be dead on. But, simple things that the director didn't need to change, she did, and many die-hard fans hollered out the differences during the film. For example, in Port Angeles, Edward was wearing the wrong clothes. Also, many people commented that there were scenes that would have been better had they stuck with the wording straight from the book. These are people who know this book like their own names. I hope next time Catherine Hardwicke pays a little more attention to detail.
