TWILIGHT movie review :-)

A MUST-SEE (especially to those who've read it)! :-)

I don't know how to start this review for i am so overwhelmed by the film. The story itself was "FANTASTIC". The love story of Edward and Bella was extraordinary. It showed that love knows no boundaries. The love they shared was passionate...not in a sensual sense. It was so strong that they both risked their lives just to be with and protect the one they love.


Edward Cullen. Oh Edward Cullen. When will i find my own Edward Cullen?haha I was sooooo kilig when he first appeared. He was so gorgeous. Hot. He was almost perfect. I just didn't like it that he's toooooooooo white. Exaggeratedly white. His love for Bella was unfathomable. I loved the part wherein he and Bella started going out and he made "akbay" to Bella when they were walking in school. It's like telling everyone that she's his girl; that he's proud of her. Also, it was so sweet of him when he started mingling with the other teens in their school and even joined prom because he knows that it was important for Bella to experience. I saw it as him changing his old ways and venturing into something new, something that isn't his thing just for the girl he loves.♥ I love every bit of him. All of his lines were delivered perfectly. All his movements were smooth and oh-so-perfect. For a girl, you wouldn't find any reason NOT to love Edward Cullen. Every part of him just gives you millions of reasons to love him.
Learning points from the movie:
♥ No matter what your differences are, if love is present, both parties will be able to willingly accept those differences.
♥ As for the Cullen family, they accepted Edward's girlfriend Bella wholeheartedly except for Rosalie. But in the end, she accepted and tried to protect Bella as well.
♥ This, i believe, is the most important lesson i learned. Even if you are made/designed to be someone, you still have the power to control yourself if you really don't want to be that someone that everyone believes you are. I couldn't explain it well though haha. Ok first Edward was about to kill the enemy vampire [i forgot the name =p] but then his foster dad stopped him and told him that he [Edward] knows that he isn't like that. He doesn't kill. Prior to that scene, Edward told Bella that he was designed to kill. But then, because he didn't want to kill even if he was made to do that, he still controlled himself and had the power over that temptation which was to kill the enemy. Another was when Edward was to suck out the venom from Bella. He was afraid that if he'll do that, he might just get so "attached" to her blood and not stop sucking it which will cause her death. But, with the help and motivation of his foster dad to control himself and have a will to stop, Edward was able to resist the temptation of sucking all of Bella's blood no matter how delicious it is for him. So you see, no matter what temptation we are faced with, with our Father's help, we can overcome it and have the power to say no to it. Even if everyone believes that it is OK to sin for it is our nature, we still have the power to resist it and choose to do what is good especially if it concerns the one we love.


After watching Twilight, i now have the courage to tell those who call this movie demonic that they aren't right. Like any other movies, they just used some fantasy to entertain the viewers but the story itself isn't bad at all. If you are just gonna look at it deeply and positively, the message of the movie is very good and has a lesson.^___^

I don't know what it is in that novel that it could make the whole world turn upside-down. You know? Even my classmates especially the girls are so much addicted to the novel itself and yet... they're still desiring to watch the film. Very popular indeed!
