Twilight (2008)

So I finally saw this first film adaptation from the astoundingly popular book series about chaste vampires, ironically it was at the insistence of my brother, who I find to be a rather unlikely Twilight fan. It was good, certainly better then I thought it would be, author Stephenie Meyer’s has a mildly interesting revisionist take on the vampire legend (which I understand will get much more fleshed out in later installments of the story), and actress Kristin Stewart has a certain quality that I can’t quite identify but that servers her well as a young star (which is good because the industry is certainly pushing her on us). However I suspect the movie wouldn’t hold much interest for me on repeat viewing. Fair to Good.
