Previews can really pull a girl to go to movie. I have never read the “Twilight” series, but the trailer on TV looked so good, I dragged my husband to see the movie last night. We decided on an earlier one (4:30) because we figured it wouldn’t be that busy. Well, it wasn’t sold out, but the theater was pretty packed. Packed with teenage girls. Note: If you are going to go see this movie, go on a school night when teenage girls will not be there. Every time a boy came onto the screen, they shrieked and said “OMG!” It probably didn’t help every time they did that, my husband leaned over and whispered “OMG” into my ear. I tried to explain to my husband not all girls are like that, and growing up, I was not like that.
The movie was pretty good and from what I hear stayed pretty true to the books. Even if you didn’t read the books, they explained everything very well. The movie did take a while to get into, but once you met all the characters, the love story between Bella and Edward could finally start. I like vampire movies, always have. But this is more than just vampires, its about falling in love, controlling ones desires and protecting one another.
The movie was only 2 hours, nothing gross was shown. I look forward to the second one, and maybe in the mean time will actually read the books. It was a good movie if you are looking for something to pass the time.
