Product Description:
When Bella Swan moves to gloomy Forks, Washington to live with her father and begins her junior year in high school, she meets and falls in love with
Amazon.com:
The big-screen adaptation of Twilight, Stephenie Meyer's bestselling vampire romance, is aimed squarely at its key demographic: teen girls whose idea of Prince Charming is a brooding, pale, undead teen who could kill you instantly at any moment. Such a prince is more fascinating than frightening to new girl Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart), who moves to the rainy-gray town of Forks, Wash., to live with her dad (Billy Burke), the local sheriff who's puzzled by a series of "animal attacks." On her first day at school, Bella appears to (visibly) nauseate her lab partner, Edward (Robert Pattinson). Turns out the scent of her blood is this vampire's "brand of heroin," and his struggle not to kill her causes an irresistible pull toward her. Whether he's attracted for the normal reasons or because she smells especially sweet to him is vague in the book and even less clear on-screen; nonetheless, Bella falls hopelessly in love with Edward, which sets her on a dangerous path when a few nomad vampires show up in town, one particularly keen on tracking the human. Directed by Catherine Hardwicke (Thirteen), Twilight is full of funny moments--not all of which are intentional--and the casting, from Stewart to Bella's self-absorbed friend Jessica (Anna Kendrick) is spot-on. The weakest link, unfortunately, is Pattinson. While he certainly looks the part, his Edward could have used an extra injection of testosterone (Pattinson, who is British, used James Dean as a model for his American accent). In scenes where he growls about the temptation to kill those who would harm Bella, or flitting around a forest warning her how dangerous he is, he comes off more like a whimpering puppy than a debonair monster. The good news is, his chemistry with Stewart (particularly in their big kissing scene) is palpable, which, let's face it, is really what matters to Twilight fans most. --Ellen A. Kim

OK, count me in the number that could stand to never see the whole Twilight franchise again. It's everywhere: web ads, bookstores, fricken Nordstrom. It's been very hard to avoid everything Twilight. So it was on Showtime On Demand, it was snowing (Blizzard 2010), and I decided to finally watch.
First off, Kristen Stewart's Bella was incredibly deficient in the personality department. Did she have a lobotomy? I mean, granted, ... Read More

Bonus Material: I don't think the bonus material DVD is something people should hold out for. About 75 percent of the time, it's the director and the author talking, which is okay the first time around. But I wanted to see far more Jacob and Edward, and Jacob is barely shown. Edward (Robert Pattinson) has small snippets, but he mainly runs his finger through his hair and talks about how he can't hear because of all the screaming. It was cool to see the vampires from out of town and watch the baseball ... Read More

Only barely post-pubescent girls can be excused for declaring this movie "good." Adults and the "Twilight Moms" that callously dare to sing this movies' praises are clearly just interested in Hollywood's latest male cheesecake and aren't objectively reviewing the film itself. The two main characters have the chemistry equivalent of rust, and the film itself the charisma of Ben Stein's character in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." Between the choice of watching this writing-deficient offal again and committing ... Read More

Really liked the movie, the books are so much more detailed. Looking forward to the rest of the saga!
