    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      (at around 1h 5 mins) In the scene where Bella goes to the Cullens house for the first time, when Nikki Reed's character had to break the bowl, she actually cut her hands. This is why she is wearing gloves for the scene in the film.
    • Goofs
      (at around 29 mins) In the book, it is clearly said that the Cullens never touch the food on their plates. The only time that they do eat is when Bella asks Edward if he can eat food, and he takes a bite of pizza. Even so, in the movie, you can see Emmett eating in the background of a cafeteria scene. (as stated by Stephenie Meyer, they had to keep re-shooting this scene because he kept accidentally eating).
    • Quotes

      Isabella Swan: [Edward jumps down off the roof of Bella's truck] Could you act human? Okay, I have neighbors.

      Edward Cullen: I'm gonna take you to my place tomorrow.

      [Pulls dent in Bella's truck back into correct place]

      Isabella Swan: Thanks... Er, wait, like with your family?

      Edward Cullen: Yeah.

      Isabella Swan: W-what if they don't like me?

      Edward Cullen: So you're worried, not because you'll be in a house full of vampires, but because you think they won't approve of you?

      [laughs]

      Isabella Swan: [unsmiling] I'm glad I amuse you.

    Pretty Good for What They Had to Work With

    I have read the books, and the first thing I noticed was that the story wasn't about a plot line at all. It's about the characters and what's going on with them. Stephenie Meyer focuses on interaction, not on dialog, plot, or setting, which is fine. But it makes for a bad movie.

    Surprisingly, Twilight wasn't that bad of a film. I expected it to be much worse. As I said, there's very little plot or dialog in the book, so it's hard to make a convincing film. They had to over act looks to try and communicate without many words. I could probably count on one hand the lines in the movie.

    Other than the over acting, it wasn't bad. There were some very good moments and some very "eh" moments. But overall I would recommend it to Twilight fans. I probably won't ever want to see it again, but it's okay at midnight with some school friends who like it or something.
