Plus it had an interesting indie film vibe to it. Hmmm. What else? Pattinson really looked like the Edward Cullen in the book. Except for her pointy chin (yup, I'm nitpicking), Kristen Stewart was okay as Bella. The cinematography was pretty good. Loved the actor who played Charlie Swan. The songs in the soundtrack really -- no pun intended -- rock.
The bad news? The mushiest dialogues in the book were also in the movie! Sumakit ang mga mata ko 'coz my eyeballs kept rolling. Ang dami kayang nag-snort sa sinehan. Hehehe. My Seoul Sister said the emotional struggle Edward and Bella went through in the book didn't translate well in the movie. I agree. The casting of some Cullens disappoint. The author made a cameo in the film. Ugh! She's no Stan Lee so the stunt was unforgivable.
Still, the film was worth one tumbler of popcorn -- if I actually bought some.

i watched the movie with a friend of mine yesterday. ang baduy nga ng mga lines! like bella saying "you're beautiful" after sabihin ni edward na "you want to see how we look like...". akala ko pa naman scary looking...basta this particular scene was "nge".
but overall kilig na kilig ang mga tao...well teenage girls, i suppose. i didn't even recall na edward was in harry potter! of course my friend was in disbelief(she's a harry potter aficionado justlike you) kaya pinapanood pa niya sa akin ang HP!
At least your review of the movie is fresh kasi you didn't get to read the book. Pang-young adult kasi talaga ang Twilight books. Naku, tilian din ng tilian ang mga teenagers sa sinehan dito. We covered our ears na lang. Hehehe. Mas okay ang book talaga. If you decide to read it, you can use Robert's face when you think of Edward Cullen. Hehehe.
well I love the movie but not as much as HP, when Carlisle came into view, I was like OMG!!! Perfect! They should've cut off some scenes tho which were kinda cheesy :p
But overall, it was worth the wait
The movie had a lot of plus and minus points but overall it was really not that bad at all. Worth watching pa rin for me. Am not sure about the sequel though. Hehehe. Hay naku, i just found out that the girl who played Rosalie was in a previous film directed by Hardwicke. Ngek. Kaya pala.
