This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. I read the book before seeing the movie and yes, they didn't incorporate every detail, but how can they, without making it an 8 hr movie? I went to see it with friends and my 13 year old daughter who had not read the book and they followed the plot and didn't have to ask me to explain anything. We all loved the movie so much that we have gone back to see it 2 additional times and plan to go back again. There are two things I am currently waiting for...One is for Twilight to come out on DVD and the second is for New Moon to come out in theaters. That's the only drawback that I can see..the movie is so good that you will have a hard time waiting for New Moon!!
