Well, I never knew about the book before the first movie came out. So when it came out I was all happy I was thinking finally a vampire movie. I love them but then I watch the trailer and I was a bit disappointed, it was a love story. I mean love is often part of a vampire movie, but I didn't expect it to be a romance as I never read the book.
So I never went to see it while it was in theater. Than twilight new moon came out. I went to the theater the day it came out to see another movie. And I was scared because I never saw as many giggling teenager girl in a theater. So it kind of turned me off even more.
Anyway a month or two ago I went to theater with a classmate. And he was shocked to learn I didn't see it so last week he lent it to me. So I took time to watch it. Well I love to see new movie, I can't say no to see a free one just because I have premade thoughts about it.
The verdict is: It's a really good love movie and a fair vampire movie.
Twilight a love movie
Twilight reuse the concept of a mortal human and immortal vampire falling in love. People might **** about making a love story out of a vampire concept. But in the movie it didn't bugged me much. I mean each vampire movie as its love story. You think about Anne Rice, all her book is about love and attraction between vampires, or vampires and human. Lestate, Louis, Claudia, Arthur, Pandora, Marcus etc… You think about Underworld, it's again a story of love, human/vampire, and vampire/werewolf. So for me the love story is fine and I have nothing to **** about. It's a cute one, including the difficulty of time, aging, taking life from somebody.
Twilight a vampire movie:
Over all it makes me think about white wolf universe even more with Twilight New Moon. If you take away the glittering part, you have pretty well the description of a vampire in White Wolf universe. The white cold skin, the celerity, the physical power and the varied special power like reading mind, inflicting pain… Being about to walk in the sun isn't something completely new ether you can read book and watch movie or TV show that make it possible. But they are flew the sun for a reason. The glittering part isn't completely new either, even if it bothers a lot of people. I think it's the first time it's that literally glittering but… we often read they are so white they nearly glow in the light. Yeah going to high school even if you're an immortal vampire sounds quite funny. But it's not the first time than vampire lives like human trying to avoid detection. So them looking like young people and going to school make a bit of sense if they want to stay in one place. But yeah that part is semi bugging me too. They look much like vampire to a point they look quite sick or weird. But we do have weird people who like to look like vampire. So maybe we would not think they are vampire just some vampire freaks or albinos people. And yeah it bug me that all the weird monsters are living in the same small little town… but I guess Forks is the new Transylvania.
It is a love movie first of all but you do have a bit of action scene. Limited but still there, so now that I see it I won't **** it anymore.
