Review of Twilight (2008) by Franchesca O — 17 Dec 2012

Living on a budget means choosing which films are worth spending your hard earned money on: what films are worth buying, what films are worth renting and what films are simply worth giving a miss.

Having grown up in Washington State, where the main story of Twilight is set, I was hoping for more from this mediocre film. Twilight has a cookie cutter story line with no surprises. I could not relate to the main characters to care about them in any way - good or bad. The only character of interest was that of Alice. Her quirky presence helped liven up what was an otherwise dead film. Is Twilight worth seeing? Yes, for it's relation to the later films. If you must see Twilight, rent it at a discount or through a monthly pay service. I have not read the book, but can only hope that the Book is better. (D+).
