This movie was far better than Twilight. However, it was choppy and there was really no character development. The characters were far more believable in New Moon, but it lacks polish. If you are going to see the movie simply because Robert Pattinson is hot, well, then you'll love it. If you are hoping to feel some of the grip that the books have, then you will probably leave disappointed. Overall, if you love the books you'll probably like the movie. If you compare it to Twilight, you will be impressed. If you compare it to other book adaptations like 'Lord of the Rings' or eve 'Harry Potter' you will probably be disappointed. Worth the cost of admission for fans of the book only.
