Genre:

"Twilight" is an action-packed, modern-day love story between a teenage girl and a vampire. Bella Swan has always been a little bit different, never caring about fitting in with the trendy girls at her Phoenix high school. When her mother re-marries and sends Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Wash., she doesn't expect much of anything to change. Then she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen, a boy unlike any she's ever met. Edward is a vampire, but he doesn't have fangs and his family is unique in that they choose not to drink human blood. Intelligent and witty, Edward sees straight into Bella's soul. Soon, they are swept up in a passionate, thrilling and unorthodox romance. To Edward, Bella is what he has waited 90 years for--a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. But what will Edward and Bella do when a clan of new vampires--James, Laurent and Victoria--come to town and threaten to disrupt their way of life?

    absolutely brilliant but i thought they could have stuck to the book a little bit more (where was the whole blood typing chapter??) and certain parts could have been elaborated on. overall it is a great film and i cant wait to see new moon even though Edward is hardly in it. hardwicke shouldn't have been the director but still she did a good job.

    The film version of a romantic novela for the Harry Potter generation. I sat through this waiting for something to happen. Nothing does. Nothing.

    Sticks very well to the book, to the point where you wished it wasn't written. One and a half hours of waiting for something to happen. Then it does and is over just as quick. Some funny moments, from the male lead, playing Edward, trying to portray anger and frustration (especially of a sexual kind) while a wooden, hollow performance from the leading lady. Nice landscaping scenes, but destroyed by dodgy angle work and far too much pale make up was used in this film.

    After all the hype and hooplah, this vampire flick is not half bad. Has the good sense to realize it is all quite silly and OTT, so has a good sense of humour about itself. Kristen Stewart is excellent and holds the film together well.
