This movie was everything Twilight was not. It followed the story with only a couple of completely believeable additions. They added an action scene at the end that was very Matrix-like and cool. The camara work was great. Lots of close-ups that made you feel very close to the characters and the action. There were a few very hokey parts but only a few and they didn't bring the movie down at all. The movie is also much brighter, more vivid and colorful than Twilight. This director didn't feel the need to color everything gray. In fact, they used the meadow scene from Twilight without the gray-out and it was beautiful. It looked like the meadow scene from the book. If you like the book, you'll love this movie!
