Twilight Review

Drum roll please.....Here is my personal review of the movie Twilight. If you missed my earlier blog, yes I did go to the midnight screening of the movie with some great friends who also wanted to humor themselves with the flick. We got there an hour early only to find the theater packed and ourselves seated on the second to the front row. I already had stiff neck before the movie even started. Add to the fact that the picture looked so huge and fuzzy it was hard to see everything at once. So this in itself might have affected my opinion of my opinion of the movie. Once started I thought it would pick up. You could tell this was a low budget film and I found myself thinking how cheesy some part were. The only saving grace for me was Edward himself. I wasn't too sure how he would look in the movie as Edward, because during his TV interviews he looks kinda quirky to me. But he did an excellent job with his part and he looked really nice up on that big screen. So even though the film itself was no grand slam at least they gave us women something nice to look at for the two hours. So was it worth staying up till 3am on a Thursday night....NO. I would have much rather watched this flick at the dollar movie or even waited till DVD. I am really hoping that they make enough revenue from this first one that the second will be a better caliber of movie. So I was disappointed in what they came up with. So if you haven't read the book, please please don't go see the movie to try and catch up, take the time to read and you will be so much more fulfilled.
