A word of advice to anyone who wants to see this movie with someone who hasnt read the book. DONT waste your money...and i dont mean that in a bad way. but the director has made this movie for the twilight book lovers...I saw it with my husband and he didnt mind the movie. but he didnt understand any of the subtle humour because he knew nothing of the characters.(and in that sense i really think the moive sucked, i mean when Edward walks into the cafeteria for the first time and jessica says oh that edward cullen, (he doesnt date anyone cause noone's good enough for him and he smiles, well a person who hasnt read the book doesnt get the smirk..my husband asked me if he's gay and thats why he's smiling...) so yeah and then the comment about jasper being in pain. again a person who hasnt read the book thinks jaspers ill or constipated...
Another scene which again was confusing was the biology scene. for it came across as Bella must reek...of bad odor...there is no way one can distinguish why edward is reacting that way...(if you havent read the book..)
so this was the first time where i'd have to say that the movie doesnt make much sense till after you walk out of there..where other books based on novels like say Brown's book Da Vinci code, it wasnt confusing... or even the Potter series that was even less confusing for a person who hasnt read the books.
So i'll say for a person who just wanted to watch the movie and wasnt into the books the moive comes across as extremely lame and confusing..and the glittering thing, yeah that was probably the worst scene i have ever seen...uggg....but the ending kinda saved the whole movie..and wrapped it up well.
Over all i'd give it 6 out of 10, cause i saw the moive through my husband's perspective which wasnt tainted by the book's..expectations...it was in fact just your run of the mill average..sappy love story, with the twist of the undead.....
@mimiiii i liked the lines you quoted from the moive..they were lol funny....
my fav. line was Carlislie's: you've given us a chance to use the kitchen for the first time...😆
and Rosalie's here comes the human....
