Product Description |
| High school romance is difficult enough to navigate when both people are human. But for 17-year-old Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart, INTO THE WILD) and Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson, HARRY POTTER AND THE GOBLET OF FIRE), Edward's life as a vampire complicates things even more. At first, when Bella moves from sunny Phoenix to the rainiest corner of Washington State, she isn't sure where she fits in at her new high school. Then she meets Edward, an ethereal beauty of a boy whose unnatural speed and strength lead Bella to the conclusion that her new crush is one of the undead. Suddenly, Bella's boring life is transformed; she's surrounded by love and danger in equal parts, thanks to the hunger of Edward and others of his kind. TWILIGHT is based on the first book in the addictive series by author Stephenie Meyer. Director Catherine Hardwicke (THIRTEEN) certainly knows her audience, which is primarily the teenage girls who worship the book and its characters. There are plenty of swoonworthy shots of Pattinson's perfectly pale Edward, and his romance with Stewart's nicely acted Bella will cause many a sigh among the devoted fans. While TWILIGHT is primarily a love story in the ROMEO AND JULIET mold, there's also plenty of action and horror to be found. Blood flows (this is a vampire movie, after all), but the small amount of gore shouldn't be too much for the squeamish viewers--and it might even draw a boy or two to the screen. The film's record-breaking box office take alone is proof that the film's appeal isn't limited to screaming teen girls. |

| I bought this movie as my first Blu-ray movie after recently purchasing a new player since this is one of my favorite movies. The blu-ray version of this movie is filled with things that are not noticable in the original version and it makes it that much more AMAZING to watch! The colors are more vibrant and the textures add so much more to the movie than I ever would have though possible. If you love this movie you should definitly purchase this DVD in blu-ray! Worth every penny! |

| My daughter made me go to this movie in the theatre. As usual, she has very good taste. I greatly enjoyed the film. Because it is a movie about vampires, one might expect blood & gore. However, except for the climactic action scene, there is very little carnage. Instead, "Twilight" is a romance. Kristen Stewart who played Jody Foster's daughter in "Panic Room" plays Bella Swan who comes to the overcast town in Washington to live with her father. Robert Pattinson played Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Widescreen Edition) (Harry Potter 4). In "Twilight," he's the leading romantic character Edward Cullen. His struggle is internal as he finds himself falling in love with Bella, if he can just resist the urge to kill her. The two fathers are also pivotal characters in the film. Bella's dad Charlie is a local policeman. Billy Burke who was in Fracture (Widescreen Edition) with Anthony Hopkins really gives a marvelous performance as the single dad who cares about his daughter, but is a bit awkward and unpracticed at being a father. Edward's dad is Dr. Carlisle Cullen, a physician whose good looks and pale complexion give him an air of calm mystery. Peter Facinelli who played Takmet in "The Scorpion King" plays the role sympathetically. Also a standout is Jasper, the newest recruit to the family. In his brief appearances, his desire to eat the humans is barely contained and looks like hostility. Jackson Rathbone who will be in "The Last Airbender" turns in a minimalist performance that works with his good looks. The villains in the piece are a trio of hungry vampires whose dinner leftovers are attributed as kills by animals. Rachelle Lefevre who appeared on TV's "Charmed" plays Victoria, the fur-wearing wild woman of the group. Kenyan-born actor Edi Gathegi plays Laurent, the most reasonable of the trio. He played Dr. Jeffrey Cole on TV's "House." Making a savage impression is Cam Gigandet as James, the tracker vampire who stalks Bella relentlessly like a cat wanting to play with its food. Gigandet played the bully Ryan McCarthy in "Never Back Down" & uses similar aggression in this film. I enjoyed "Twilight" because of the unrequited romance between Bella & Edward. The kiss that takes forever to culminate throbs with emotion all the more because of its restraint. I purchased the single disc version as a used copy and am glad to be able to pop it in the DVD player. Enjoy! |
DVD in perfect condition!
