Talking Skin

I am currently reading the first book and I know it’s too early to give my opinion. And so I am doing a movie review. (One thing for sure though you can never compare Meyer’s Vampire to Ann Rice’s. Rice is classic)

The ladies always talk about the upcoming movie and the current book they’re reading. I felt like I don’t know what’s going on with almost everything and I want to know what the bustle is all about and so I watched the movie. The story is all about a girl named Bella played by Kristen Stewart fell in loved with the sexy-so-old vampire boy Edward played by Robert Pattinson. There are a lot of vague scenarios in the movie that I think they should tell the audience since not everybody read the book. Say why the vampires think Bella’s blood smell so good and why Edward can’t read Bella’s mind where as he can read almost all human’s mind but not Bella’s. Also there is nothing in the movie to distinguish Bella from the other kids from school. She doesn’t have special powers, no what so ever except that her skin is paler than the other. What made her so special?

I like the scene where in Bella will meet the whole Cullen Family, and they where all like cooking Italian dish for her – I think that was so cute. Just like Ann Rice Stephanie Meyer’s made her vampire a lot more human.

Action scenes sucks and I think director Catherine Hardwicke needs to work on it. But the romance and the chemistry between the two leads are successful, which I know for sure almost pinoys or should I say pinays will love this because there are loads of tender moments and I am sure they will be creating like a “Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight Group or We love Robert Pattinson Group” in friendster and I am sure on the layout there will be like a glittering heart and butterflies all over.

I hate the musical scoring, it ain’t cinematic. I just don’t get it. Except for the last song by Iron and Wine “Flightless Bird, American Mouth” where in I think it blends well with the type of community they have in Forks.

Even if I didn’t read the book there is a feeling like there is something missing.
