I thought it was great, my 15 yr old daughter thought it was amazing!!! She even told me afterwards "Mom, I wish there really were Vampires, so I could find one and date him"lol!!! She is very critical of all the movies she sees, so if she loved it, it's good:) I have read all 4 books of the series, sort of started them not knowing it was geared towards teens, but I got hooked! The movie was a very good adaptation of the book:) Can't usually say that. I hope they don't keep us waiting too long for the second film.
