Review of Evening (1966) by Dylan D — 19 Mar 2015
Twilight is a far better movie than many may have expected. Despite its construction around the basics of romance and vampire lore, not to mention its strict adherence to a basic three-act story, it feels incredibly fresh and remains engaging from beginning to end.
The film develops its characters very well, aided by a pair of above-average performances from Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson. Twilight also features steady direction, fascinating visuals, and a consistently fine score.
It's no surprise that the film's built-in audience devoured it in droves, but Twilight is worth sinking the teeth into for those unfamiliar with the books, too. Twilight is a surprisingly effective and gripping film that offers up just the right doses of suspense, action, horror, drama, and, of course, romance, the end result a film that far surpasses expectations and might just mean the addition of four new books to the library.
