Twilight [2008] (DVD) Reviews

I will start this review with one simple statement... Twilight is the best vampire movie I have ever seen. It beats any 'Blade' movie, 'The Lost Boys' and even the fabulous 'Interview with a Vampire'. This crosses the borders of both teen flick with hard core vampire mayhem and does it all with no shortage or romance and lust. The story ...  Read the complete review

Hands up who here has never heard of Twilight? I would be surprised if anyone hadn't heard of the film, some perhaps haven't heard that it came from a novel, but still if you haven't heard of it I would be incredibly shocked! It isn't something that is in obscurity anymore, however when I originally read the books they were not perhaps the best ...  Read the complete review

(Film only review) I've tried to keep away from the phenomenon of Stephanie Meyer's 'Twilight' series. For no other reason than my own stubborn attempt to keep away from the things that people rave about (the only exception to the rule being Harry Potter). I didn't want to go near the books and get sucked into another series, there's ...  Read the complete review

A little bit of back story, after hearing fantastic reviews about the books and knowing that the film was about to be realised in the cinemas, one Friday on the way home from work I popped into Asda and bought Twilight for about £4, knowing that I had a quiet weekend coming up I thought I'd see what all the fuss was about. Well I instantly fell in ...  Read the complete review

I first heard about Twilight in my Drama class at arts college when a girl who attends my class wouldn't stop going on about it. Everytime we performed, she would always be a vampire and instead of discussing our performances she would always bring Twilight into the conversation which would eventually take over. This went on for a ...  Read the complete review

Twilight is a film based on a popular teen novel by writer Stephanie Meyer released in December 2008 in the UK and to be released on DVD in April.

Twilight ...  Read the complete review

After weeks of badgering, my wife managed to get me to watch Twilight with her. I could see the appeal for many people, but didn't really think it would be my type of film. How wrong I was! Right from the start, it hooked me in and made me want to watch more, and not really by doing anything spectacular for the first 15 minutes or ...  Read the complete review

There is no question whether or not it is better than the book, but the question is how good is the film. Many people seem to argue that the film Twilight was not that good because it is not as good as the book. I for one also agree with this point, but to look at the film objectively as a film is what this review shall be ...  Read the complete review

Having read the Twilight saga, and having placed them on a pedestal that no book has been on since Harry Potter, I was eagerly awaiting the release of the Film. However, as well as being excited, I prepared myself for it to not live up to the book. And it was a good thing I did, or I would have been disappointed. It was a good film, but no film ...  Read the complete review

If you have read my review of the book you will know that whilst I enjoyed the story the book wasn't really for me given the fact that in my opinion it isn't wrote for my demographic. Not so with the movie. This is a movie that men and women, boys and girls, adults and children will enjoy. The story follows Isabella Swan, a 17 year old ...  Read the complete review
