The cloudy sky was the perfect setting for the dark, yet romantic moment between two lovers. Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) stood in the forest uttering the famous line from the book, “And so the lion fell in love with the lamb.”
Unfortunately, the much anticipated scene from the book was ruined through poor acting and awkward directing. “Twilight” continued to be mediocre, failing to capture the true magic of the book.
The plot was sufficient considering how long the movie was. Unfortunately for people who didn’t know that Edward could read minds, the first half of the movie was filled with confusing jokes that made absolutely no sense.
What made the movie unbearable was the unbelievable cheesy and horrible writing. The audience couldn’t help but laugh. Scenes meant to be serious or normal turned into repeated moments of uncontrollable laughter.
Although the movie failed in the editing and writing section, Pattinson did well considering the script. The infamous crooked smile of Edward showed through brilliantly on his face and he truly captured the intense love Edward felt for Bella.
Pattinson and Stewart’s chemistry gave the movie its slight edge to actually being good. Unfortunately, every other actor was cheesy and caused the movie to feel even longer than two hours.
Where the two main characters succeed, “Twilight” failed to continue that success resulting in one of the worst movie adaptations ever.
