"Twilight" is an action-packed, modern day love story between a vampire and a human. Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has always been a little bit different, never caring about fitting in with the trendy girls at her Phoenix high school. When her mother remarries and sends Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she doesn't expect much of anything to change. Then she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), a boy unlike any she's ever met. Intelligent and witty, he sees straight into her soul. Soon, Bella and Edward are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance. Edward can run faster than a mountain lion, he can stop a moving car with his bare hands – and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. But he doesn't have fangs, and he doesn't drink human blood...

After 2 hours into the show, I still don't understand what all the rage was about. "Why can the vampires of this show appear in daylight?", DC questioned. The film was boring and slow-moving... I was rather disappointed. This is not what I expect from a popular romantic film. This further proved to DC that his theory that watching romantic films are waste of time, action-packed movies are much more exciting... I guess I have to agree with DC this once. What a let-down! The ending seemed to say that there is going to be a sequel to it. I wonder if I would want to give it another chance...
