Customer Ratings & Reviews

A love story. with vampires...ok passable. However this is so disappointing because it is just a movie for teenagers and doesn't explore the darkerst side of what a vampire is supposed to be, which in my opinion is blood thirsty, evil, and dark...to name a few characteristics. It has no gore, nothing really good in the plot and is totally disappointing. Nothing to make you squemish, nothing to make you turn your head, nothing but teenagers kissing. I could watch saturday morning cartoons and be more amused. It took all i could muster not to fall asleep during this and afterwards felt like i was the one who should have been paid to watch this. If you want a horror movie...STAY AWAY FROM THIS. If you want a GOOD love story then STAY AWAY FROM THIS because it doesn't even deliver in that category either. If you are 12 years old and easily amused with a movie that can't make up its mind on what genre to be in and falls WAY short of anything good, if you like bad acting, and Hollywood cuties that will purely make it soley based on their good looks and not on good acting, if you like stories that fall way short of your expectations(if you was expecting what i was expecting, which was good ol' gore and death since this is a "Vampire" movie), then i say watch it. Otherwise don't waste your time...unless someone pays YOU to watch it, then try to wonder why you just wasted over an hour and a half of your life.

There was no mystery. We all know that this is a vampire movie/book. But details of the writing left no mystery to the imagination for how dangerous the romantic relationship was/is supposed to be (in the movie). Though, the graphics are great (as you can see where the money was spent) and the color tones do set the mood. As a fan of all vampire movies, it still needed a little more vampiric charisma.

The movies contain poor acting & plot. Beside that it miss some of the glorious detail that was in the book and so call romantic act. The act was way too deep that a general people couldn't even comprehend that they were actually in love untill they start saying i love you or kissing each other. Probably the only way for this movie being sold is having the good image on the actor.

Just doesn't live up to the books. Kind of a disappointment..

Could have been a little more action, just no enough action the book was better to read.

If this movie was not already a book, I would have given it a MUCH better rating, even though it DID have quite a few flaws that didn't have anything to do with its straying from the book. One thing that REALLY Had trouble with in the film is how hard it is for people how have NOT read the book to understand Bella and Edward's love. In the film, it's portrayed as if they are two strangers that are completely infatuated with eachother. The book was much better, so if you plan on reading the book, DEFINITELY do it first before seeing it, so that it doesn't ruin it for you. However, if you don't plan on reading it at all, go ahead and see the film, you may enjoy it much more than the fans of the book. Also, I would only recommend this to the Hardcore Twilight Fans of the books, because for me, I HAVE to have it in my collection just because I'm such a fan of the books, regardless that I did not enjoy the film so much.

I have read the books... I have watched the movie... Never have I been so confused about how some company would spend money to publish or create something this terrible. I appreciate romance novels and vampire novels. I watch all genres on movies, from the chick-flick 'Failure to Launch' to ' hardcore action movies like 'Shottas.' But these books and this movie fit nowhere in our society. They don't make you think, they aren't funny, they aren't heart warming. They are dry, boring, elementary, and the actors can't act. I feel that this movie is good for no one. For the people that think young teenage girls would like it, I say 'NAY!' to you, sir. Nobody in fact likes this franchise, they only see the sparkly, glittery, vampires and get sucked into a void that they cannot be released from.

I wrote a previous review under the DVD giving the film 3 stars, because I thought it had potential and I thought the second one would be better (New Moon). Also, I recently watched Blood and Chocolate, which was terrible. But, I think I understand now. These movies are for kids, they both should be rated PG and should've been done by Disney. These are vampire and werewolf films for children and young teens. This is the reason for me reducing my previous rating, they're misleading. These films should've been advertised as family or kids movies. Plus, the new film New Moon is really just these two films put together. If you're looking for something to sit and watch with your kids, I'd say yes. But, to any adult looking for a serious film, I DON'T recommend this!

This was almost as bad as Blood and Chocolate! I think this is a good kids movie. In fact, I watched it with my two daughters which are 10 and 13, they loved it. But, this review is for adults. I myself love a good vampire flick, but this movie is just a slap in the face to the vampire genre. The acting, make-up, and special effects were just terrible. It should've been rated 'G'. If you're looking for a good kids movie, I'd say yes. But to everyone else, I'd say NO! Don't waste your time!

This movie could go two ways. It could either be pretty good because they were meant to be bad acting or it could be really bad because it wasn't meant to be bad acting and it was. Either way, I didn't care for it.

Well with all the buzz about this movie i thought it would be fun to watch. well it wasn't. Vary bad acting, makes vamps looked bad. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY

I really don't see what the big hype is. My sister read all the books and convinced me to see this even though I had doubts to start with mainly because it was a romantic vampire movie. The storyline was okay, the plot was interesting on how and why they were vampires. Other than that, the movie sucked. It was too slow, too cheesy especially in the fight scenes. The sparkling was awkward and the acting was horrible. The only reason it sold so great and won so many awards was because of Eduardo, and his cult. If you want a good vampire movie, watch Underworld 1-3.

If you read the books then this movie sucks. There is so much more in the book than just the love story between Bella and Edward. In the movie there are verry main carectors that do not even get introduced. The acting in the movie was not that great ether. And the hole movie had a blue look to it. I understand that the place that they live was always cloudy but that dusn't mean that it has to always be blue and feel like such a depreased movie. The books did not make me feel depreased but the movie did.

Please do yourself a favor and pick up the books. I was dissapointed because the characters were nothing like I pictured them when I first read them. Special effects weren't all that special, acting was icky. GREAT book, iffy movie. :( P.S. would've rated "plot" higher, but they left out SO MANY things from the book!! Why didn't they just use the book as a script and film it word for word!?!

This movie have nothing new to offer.It's been done so many times. The acting was bad. The fight scence was bad. The effects and so called animation was bad. Specially when Edward was running and he was carrying Bella behind his back. And when he was climbing the threes. That was so dumb. And the spider monkey line?who wrote that? They just can't see pass Robert P. Otherwise they would realize that the movie is bad. Makes no sense.

Seriously? This movie was long and drawn out with overused and tired romance plots. The only problem is that it doesn't do it in any unique way. Oh great, the boyfriend is a vampire! Whoopie! Water down Ann Rice to satisfy the Harry Potter fans more please. While its great that this helps promote books, there is nothing unique about this. Just more pointless and overly long mooning between two people.

terrible, i saw this movie in theatre and i was only able to make it halfway through with my grandma, i am very disappointed the best part of the movie was when it ended. the worst part was when it began. i use to like vampires until i saw this sorry excuse for a movie i feel sorry for all of those who hated this movie and wasted their money on it i believe they should have been given a refund.

I saw this movie once and said "wow" another bad love story that's hyped up again. The acting was really bad the plot to me was just awful it should've been a straight to dvd movie. In short if your a fan of the main character and nothing else its great if not then its just terrible.

The books were great! But this movie just doesnt translate well. It turns what is an epic drama into just another teen movie. Sad. :( I hope they don't slaughter the sequels too and turn this great dark romance into another stereotypical teen money waster.

Don't waste your time. Bad filming including picture and sound. The makeup makes them all look like ghost. The only thing the move has going for it is the plot, which is not all the great. Winner of the Razzie bad movie of the year award in my book.
