You have to know that a movie will never live up to the expectations you have for it in movie form. The negatives are that the writers try to make Bella and Edward into these "hip" teenagers. In the book they seem to come across as old souls. Another thing lacking in the movie format is the great character development. I know some things have to go, but I really would have liked to have seen a bit more in the development of Edwards character. The positives are that I think that the producers cast the actors well. With a few exceptions for bad dye jobs on hair, the people chosen to recreate the characters were well thought out. I hope you will enjoy. I am sure it will be a blockbuster.
