I really enjoyed reading the books, I literally couldn't put them down. I wasn't totally disappointed with this movie. Because they did have a small budget. I do wish they would of created a better transition, the movie moved way too fast through all the character building scenes. The previews showed lots of action, so the people in the theatre must of been slightly disappointed, those who didn't know what to expect. Everyone laughed in the theatre at all the parts that were suppose to be sweet and not creepy. The voice over sounded horrible. Kristen sounded like she was just reading off the paper instead of feeling the emotions and being bella. Everyone was dreamy. I didn't think of the act

If you haven’t read the book how could you understand the passion and longing they have for each other. How they feel one could not live without each other and the physical pain each of them feels when apart. I can only hope the studio hires a new team of writers, directors and hair and makeup crew for 'New Moon'. They should also consider a soundtrack that actually works with the scenes.

The movie is meant to be BASED on the book, people! Books generally are better than the movies! Look at any movie based on a novel, most fans of the books usually are not completely satisfied. Because you've read the book you expect it to be exact, but it can't always be. A movie is just an outside view, visual, and less descriptive because it's more literal. It's better to judge it as a movie, not as the book.

The movie completly lacked the chemistry that the book portrays between Bella and Edward. I was dissapointed with the movie, they left out character introductions, and pivotal plot lines.
I was on the edge of my seat reading the book and I couldn't put it down. With the movie I couldn't wait for it to be over. I hope that the next one will have more "meat" to it!

I'm a huge fan of the Twilight saga. This movie did not do it justice at all. Most of the cast did not portray their characters at all. It did not make you care about them on screen. I saw Twilight opening night and wasn't expecting the best movie ever but it didn't even meet my low expectation of it at all. I was in a theater of people laughing at parts that should have been serious, I was probably laughing the loudest. There was no chemistry at all between Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

I cannot believe how horribly they trashed the book. There was no character building. This movie was horrible. Any sequels you can be sure I am gonna save my money!
