Twilight Review (by ME :D)

Staring: * = Terrible!! ***** = Utterly brilliant!
Twilight: ** and a half. But the rating may go up after I see it again.

Over-all:
Not thaaaaat bad. I still liked seeing it, and I'm sure I'll like it better the next time around. I always do with movies. It's just that I don't understand why they did some things. It could have been such an amazing movie, and it wouldn't even have taken that much effort to make it that way. So, I just don't understand why they didn't do a better job. But, still a good movie, glad I saw it, can't WAIT to see it again, and, okay, Emmett looked GOOD :) LOL!
My personal Twilight review :D

Good parts:
1. Alice was absolutely perfect. Could not have been any better.
2. The scene at the Cullens' house was hilarious!
3. Jacob was great.
4. Emmett was perfect.
5. Rosalie was good.
6. Charlie wasn't really like the book that much, but he was really funny, so that's okay.
7. Bella's lullaby was PERFECT.
8. The graduation cap part was funny.


Parts that weren't right, but I think were exceptable/didn't really matter:
1. Bella went straight to the ballet studio instead of stopping by her house. (That was okay. I can understand that.)
2. Edward's room was too small. (Whatever. Not a big deal.)
3. Edward's "birthday" was wrong. They said 1918, it was 1901. (Okay, again, not plot-altering.)
4. I didn't like how Carlisle, like, went crazy in the flashbacks of him changing Edward. It looked like he was eating his neck. Ew. Lol!

Bad parts:
1. Edward's script was terrible.
2. Edward acted all wrong for the first half of the movie.
3. Edward's voice was wrong. He couldn't get his words out and it was wrong and annoying.
4. Jasper...yeah, he was weird.
5. The hotel part lasted a grand total of 2 minutes instead of like a day and a half.
6. Renee wasn't right at all. Much too old.
7. The part when Bella has to leave Charlie was EXTREMELY unemotional, which is so wrong.
8. Alice and Emmett weren't in the Jeep with Edward and Bella when they were running from James.
9. Edward never gets mad at Bella in the movie. (And we all know THAT'S a big lie lol)
10. Edward is too easy to calm down and convince that Bella's plan is a good one.
11. Edward goes crazy when sucking Bella's blood out in the movie. (Sooooo not like the book and really freaky.)
12. The "meadow" part absolutely sucked (No pun intended lol and sorry, I gotta be honest. It wasn't even a meadow in the movie. :( ).
13. They left out the entire part when they do the blood testing in biology and Bella faints.
14. The whole 20 questions thing when Edward and Bella take turns quizzing each other didn't even happen.
15. Edward never mentions how they hunt, that they don't have to breathe, or what Jasper's "talent" is.
16. Jasper never even uses his "talent."
17. Edward keeps slipping up. He'll be like, "I heard his thoughts!" and Bella will be like, "What??" and Edward tries to cover it up. Um, no. He's had over a hundred years to work on not slipping up. He would not just randomly blurt stuff out like that.
18. They don't make it clear how Carlisle changed everyone.

Still, don't freak out. Go see it. It's not terrible, it just could have been better. Can't wait to see it again!!
