Twilight thoughts
The film is not bad at all. It’s the kilig movie of the year aimed mostly at teenagers, but mature moviegoers can also find it entertaining at the very least even if only for the fact that even when news of depressing economic developments, terrorist attacks, global warming, and the forthcoming season of craziness that cause taxi drivers’ horns to reappear, romance happens among the living and for the most part, the undead. But because I’m the type who misses an entire movie for one frame, here be the notes. I will take time to enjoy the film when I watch it again because I missed a couple of key scenes.
- Pacing is too fast. There is not enough time to establish story lines, sub-plots and characters. Could it be that because the target audience for this film are teens and tweens whose attention spans are too short that the filmmakers had to make sure the plot moved at a hundred miles per minute?
- Bella is pale, but Edward and his clan is pale in an obviously “I am wearing ten layers of cake foundation” way. And why in the world is Edward wearing much, much redder and thicker lipstick than Bella? I’m predicting a jump in glutathione sales because of this movie. Met should have made an advertising tie-up with Twilight distributors.
- Edward is handsome, but is less than what readers had in mind. However, Rob Pattinson’s screen presence made up for what fangirls had initially hated him for.
