I waited until it reached TV, but I had to see movie that so many people were talking about. Eh, its just a love story between a young girl and a good looking vampire. I prefer True Blood for my vampire stories. Still it did have a plot, so it gets some marks.
Finally got round to seeing this. A good film well done on a big budget. A teen romance film with a Vampire twist. Didn't have as much action as I was expecting but the special effects are pretty good. Hopefully the second film just out will take it up a couple of levels.
Eeeee.... c'est quoi ça ? C'est quoi cette folie à propos de ce film ? C'est du n'importe quoi ! De un, ce mec est pas beau du tout ! De 2, tous les personnages dans leur ensemble sont très froid et distant, il on n'a même pas le gout de les connaitre. Il n'y a aucune action dans...( read more)
This is not a vampire film, its a silly romantic fantasy written by sum chick. the film technically is actually quite good and welll made but da story is just ridiculous. I give it 3 stars 4 the production quality alone.
It's a rather over hyped and overated film, even thow it is watchable and entertainning. Its a decent start to what could be a potentialy great and remarkable series. Definately a new take on the romantic vampire genre, its far from epic or even being great but is good enough to ...( read more)
Have read the book series and I was disappointed with how much infomation that Catherine Hardwicke left out on this one. Having said that I do really love this movie and I am looking forward to the other installments. I just wish they would have made it longer to include more of...( read more)
Not as close to the book as I would have liked but still a good movie.
Twilight the movie is cautious, a sort of Tiger Beat-ified Twin Peaks. In its undercooked way, though, it's enjoyable. full review
It's a well-made but thematically flawed film based on a book that was ingenious in conceit but generically written. The strengths of one are the flaws of the other, and vice versa. full review
A hackneyed jumble of cuts and pastes from the book, blended with second-rate music video bits and third-rate visual effects, and finally undone by the fatal casting of Kristen Stewart as Bella. full review
Not that Twilight's fate hangs on intelligibility. It hangs on fangs that aren't bared, and on a bloodlust that isn't indulged. full review
...It's a fleeting reminder of how much dumb fun is missing from this oddly neutered neo-horror movie, and how little is being offered in its place. In "Twilight," the only characters drained dry are ... full review
Twilight is, by its very nature, all about unfinished business, the story of a brooding, caring romantic hero and the woman who cannot -- although she wants to -- yield to him. Only his eyes penetrate... full review
My advice: Focus on Pattinson and Stewart. They make you understand why the books sold 17 million copies. full review
Gothic wooziness stifles many of Hardwicke's lighter impulses, such as her knack for jiving humor in scenes among friends and family. And some of the more cartoonishly gymnastic CG stunts look plain s... full review
This adaptation of the best-selling novel by Stephenie Meyer never rises above the level of a teen soaper on the CW. full review
The High School Musical of vampire films. full review
Meyer is said to have been involved in the production of Twilight, but her novel was substantially more absorbing than the unintentionally funny and quickly forgettable film. full review
Stewart, in particular, delivers her lines as if simultaneously confused and half asleep. At least Pattinson gives emoting a shot but in the end he doesn't fare much better either. full review
Director Catherine Hardwick leads her young cast through the story's soap opera elements with honest respect for the material. full review

I just saw it for the first time (I know, ridiculous) and I loved it! The story is very interesting, the acting is really good - especially when Bella almost dies.
I really have to mention the special effects as well, they did a good job!
I didn't read the book(s) but I'm sure I will in the future!
Edward has something dark about him, that's what is making him so sexy :)
I love the open end, can't wait to see the next movie!
Definitely a recommend!
I've read some of your coments and yes, SM created her own kind of 'vampires' (I agree with the coment below me), and it's good to create your own things. But I find these to be a little stupid, sorry I prefer the old-fashioned vampires, those who get in ashes when the sun shows up and don't sparkle. I mean LOVED the sparkling part, I had a really good laugh when he sparkled. "This is the skin of a murderer!" I laughed till the next scene.
For those who say 'This is the best mvoie I've ever seen' watch more movies, you'll see there are GREAT art pieces out there and Twilight is NOT a piece of art. Sorry.
Hate this movie. Hate it with a passion. I hated the first few seconds of it, and I can't stand the actors they picked. I don't mind Jasper...but everyone else doesn't work.
All their movie posters have these "I'm so sexy...watch this stupid movie." expressions on them.
This is the last movie I would recommend to anyone. I wouldn't even recommend it to my worst enemy.
Go ahead and give me crap for this comment, it's not gonna change my opinion.
I read the book saw the movie and frankly dude it sucked so not worth obsessing over at all! This is just a movie made to get people not to appriciate the an acual vampire movie like Interveiw with the Vampire or Lost Boys. Sorry to dissapoint when when you have a sparkly guy he's gay! Vampires are supposed to spontaniously burst into flames not sparkle! Yeah, I'm a twilight hater......deal with it!
Twilight is great not exactly like the book, but is my all time favorite i loved it. Kristen Stwart and Rob Pattinson are awsome,can't wait for 11-20-09 lol!
it was a really good movie, altough it didn't quite follow the book, there were some aspects that should have been explained in the movie and weren't.
But still i loved it and im looking forward to the next one ^^
Vampires do NOT sparkle ..VAMPIRES DO NOT SPARKLE. With out a doubt the worst vampire movie ever, women should not be allowed to write vampire books
