Rating: B-
This is the movie based on the first book of the “Twilight” series. Bella moves from Phoenix to Forks, WA and meets Edward. Too bad Edward is a vampire, a nice one, but still. Then she gets chased by a not-nice vampire, James. And then they go to prom.
Well. I have read all four books and the book wins over the movie. I thought the movie was well-done but not worth the huge hype. Of course, this is probably the next Titanic with the teen-age girls repeating their trips to the movies and the supersonic rise in fame of Robert Pattinson – who plays Edward quite well. I’m not sure what I was expecting but what I got was a faithful adaptation of the book. Kristin Stewart’s Bella got on my nerves…everyone else was pretty good. Go see it but don’t expect to be amazed.
