I took my daughter to this movie having no expectations, just going because she was dying to see it! And what I got was a great movie that I was into as much as she was. The love story was endearing, the vampire scenes kept you on the edge of your seat and the scenery was beautiful. I walked out of the theater thinking I would actually go see that movie again. What is also nice about it...is that it is a chick flick but a man would not be totally bored with it...it is not overly mushy and it has some good fight scenes, it would make a nice date movie!!!
