My sister had told me about the books and I just thought that she was crazy. When the movie got closer to opening I really started to wonder if I would like it. I got the books and finished them in one week. Sitting through the movie didn't feel like 2 hours and even though it was a low budget film I think that Cathrine did a wonderful job. This film was a trial in a way to see if it would make it like the Harry Potter movies. I think the next movies will be even better and I can't wait! I have been back to see it again and I thought it was even better the second time. The actors will be able to grow in to there roles and make the next movies even better. I recommend this movie for a good love story.
