I LOVE the Twilight books, but this movie was the worst hyped and biggest letdown. Yes it was done on a small budget and you can definitely tell. The special effects were really corny, the acting (aside from Dr. Cullen and Charlie) was pretty bad and there were huge holes in the story line so those that hadn't read the book really missed a lot of necessary information. The story was too rushed and scenes that needed some time were lumped together. I know movies have a short time frame and don't always follow the books exactly, but if they do make the next 3 they need a new director and better acting out of the main characters. My theater was laughing the whole movie at the ridiculousness of it.
