LET'S TALK MOVIES!!!
The first time I saw this movie I thought, "Awe, how cute. What a way to twist up the whole vampire look. I want more." The movie was and the book was very interesting to me so, I became a fan. So, without further ado, today's topic.....
Twilight
"It's like a drug to me. You're like my own personal brand of heroin."
I really enjoyed how Bella met everyone. She always seemed uncomfortable. When Bella met Edward, things were bit complicated. Bella, as a human, has a different kind of smell to her. It's very strong and for a vampire, very mouth watering. Edward tried to get out of the class he shared with Bella, but he couldn't. Instead, he left for while. Bella had plans on confronting him, but she couldn't. After a week, Edward comes back to school and introduces himself. They began to get along, and because of Bella's scent, it was becoming very hard for Edward to stay way.
After Bella's run in with some strange men, Edward came out of no where and saved her. Knowing what those men were thinking, Edward needed to be distracted so that he couldn't turn around and do something bad. Once Bella got home after a long evening, she did more research on "the cold ones" as Jacob put it. After the research she had already done on the werewolves and then touching Edward and feeling how cold he was, everything was starting to make since to her. The next day, Bella skipped school and Edward followed her. Deep into the woods, Bella tells Edward that she knows what he is.
"Say it. Out loud."
"Vampire."
"Then ask me the most basic question, what do we eat?"
"You won't hurt me"
"And so the Lion fell in love with the lamb."
With the truth all out in the open, there was nothing keeping them apart. Not even the three vampires that were hunting in Forks. As Bella got closer to the Cullens family, she was already considered family to them. When she was invited to play baseball with them, things started to turn for the bad. While the game was fun, the hunt was worse. The three vampires that were feeding in Forks were about to leave until the heard the Cullens playing ball. The three vampires were Laurent, James, and Victoria. Looking different from the Cullens, Bella had to try to be as still as she could so that they wouldn't notice she was human.
"Can we join for a game. Come on, it's just one game."
"Sure, a few of us were just leaving, you can take their place."
"I'm the one with the wicked curve ball."
"Oh, I'm sure we can handle that."
As everyone starts to walk away, the wind starts to blow, and Bella's scent heads straight to James.
"You brought a snack"
"A human"
"She is part of this family."
"I can see this game is over, we'll be leaving now. James!"
Edward had to get Bella out. James is a tracker and this just became his favorite game. Bella insisted on going home to Charlie, her dad. Once the plan was set, Bella had to make Charlie believe that she needed to leave Forks that night. As the Cullens tried to come up with a plan to throw James off hunt, they knew they had to get Bella to safety. Alice and Jasper took Bella to Phoenix where they checked into a hotel. However, their plan failed. James realized that he was no longer following Bella's scent. As James followed her scent back to Phoenix, he found the old house where she used to live and found her mom's phone. Having Renee's phone, he figured out how to lure Bella to his trap. Convincing Bella that he had her mom, Bella did as James requested and went to her old dance studio. Once she realized that her mom wasn't there, she sprayed pepper spray in his face. As she tried to escape, James tossed her across the room causing her to hit her head and she began to bleed. When Edward arrived, he and James began to fight. As soon as Edward thought they could get away, James grabs Edward by the leg and tosses Bella one direction and Edward into a window. With glass everywhere, Bella ended up bleeding even more due to a piece of glass in her leg. James began to taunt Edward as he bit Bella's hand with the intentions of turning her. When Alice, Jasper, Emmitt, and Carlisle arrived, Edward was trying to rip James apart. With the venom traveling through her blood as the transformation was taking place, Edward needed to know his options in order to help Bella. Carlisle told him his only chance was to suck the venom out of her. Because of Bella's scent, Edward knew he may not be able to stop once he started. With Carlisle at his side and Bella near death, eventually Edward found the strength to stop. After Bella's recovery and a brace on her leg, her and Edward went to prom. Bella saw all of her friends in their outfits and gave them "approving" looks. Once her and Edward make it outside to dance, she asked him why he just didn't let the venom take over and turn her. With the intentions of having Edward turn her, he wonders why she wants to be a monster, then he kisses her on the neck.
"Is it not enough, just to spend a long happy life with me?"
"Yeah, for now."
So, with all of that being said, this was not at all what I had expected. I do believe the book was much better, but then again, the books are always better. If you remember correctly (most of the true fans) there was never supposed to be a second or third movie. So with that being said, I give this movie 4 stars. Well that's all for now folks, stay tuned cause I plan on finishing the rest of the Twilight Saga (I figured the true Twilight fans would appreciate that) movies. Til next time........
