Movie review Monday-eh, Sunday!

I couldn't wait until Monday to talk about Twilight. I know there is a lot of hype about this movie and it doesn't disappoint! The movie takes place in Washington state and you get the sense of the dreary setting and Kristen Stewart who plays Isabella (Bella) is perfect as the pale skinned dark hair love interest. She is new to the school from Arizona where she decided to live with her dad for awhile.
Now Robert Pattinson who is the character Edward Cullen (vampire) is excellent, the two of them have great chemistry. What is great about this movie is I really don't recall any bad language and there aren't any sex scenes. However, I can unshamefully say I was hoping there would be something with them!
I can't wait for the second movie & now I want to read the book.

Make a date night with Twilight.

OK, we watched this last night, and I have to say: we were a little disappointed. I mean, for me, it just didn't measure up to the hype.
Maybe because I haven't read the books, I don't know.

I really did appreciate how clean they kept it.

I guess I was holding out for more suspense.

We watched it, it was OK, but that's it for me.

I'm glad you liked it. I can't wait until the 2nd movie.

The books are even better! I'm half way through the 2nd book and I can't put them down.

Thanks for the review.

I was on the fence about reading the books. I was worried that they were all about teen-girl crushes, but I've heard from a few people that guys enjoy the books as well.

We all need to start a book club!!
