I have read the books of Twilight and was looking forward to a movie that if not exactly parallel to the story, at least bringing the words to life. The characters are pretty much what I pictured they would be, but the story between Bella and Edwards was a little bit....well ridiculous. The script went from good to bad to accidentally funny. Some things that happen just didn't make sense and caused a serious scene to become almost cheesy. This didn't follow through the the whole movie though. Most of the movie did its job. The main characters were cast well when it came to looking the part. But I will say some acting was lackluster. I don't think the Twilight fan in me will say out loud that I exactly dislike the movie, but it was decent.
I loved the movie! I loved the fact that the trailer did not give away all the funniest moments. The best part was the fact that the trailer enticed me to go see the movie, so I had a feeling it wasn't going to be a dissapointment. Luckily I was right!
