MOVING but SLOW

I really liked this movie, coming close to LOVE. One of those movies that when it comes out on DVD, I will watch over and over. While the performances were very well done by the entire cast, I didn't find the premise very believable. He wasn't really a con man as he was just the "bad boy" archetype, which really didn't seem so sinister. The girl comes off as way too sophisticated by any standards to me. Sorry, just didn't believe it, though the drama was spell binding. Lastly, it did go a little too slow for me, character development takes time but for this film its the premise of the story, and the resolution just concludes too quickly.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

NOT AS GOOD AS THE HYPE

Better then the 1st movie but its just "Underworld" with teens. I get girl’s obsession with Edward and Jacob (they cast Jacob better then Edward), but none of the female characters are in anyway interesting and Kristen Stewart still blows. Bella is just an accessory (they guys could easily be fighting over who's better looking). I don't buy her as an angst ridden teen girl struggling with her emotions. She just comes off as stupid and ditzy, not confused or vulnerable. In high school, guys are the immature ones not the girls, but they are older (100+ years), which still sounds like they're creepers. What's a guy in his 100s supposed to find attractive about a teen girl? It does explain why they have that sophisticated, determined attitude.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

GREAT CGI. The effects in this movie were brilliant, but the story and characters were not any different then any other end of the world movie that has come before it.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

If you like the whole british sophisticated, situational comedy, meant for people who are educated above their intelligence then you will probably find this movie funny. If you prefer the crass type of comedy like Road Trip, or Borat this movie may not deliver for you. It's a good story, realistic (its loosely based on a true story), laughable (some funny parts) but its not much different then anything you would find on prime time TV (in a comedy show), except its longer, and costs $8.00. I wouldn't add it to my DVD collection.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
