Clearly someone at Summit must have looked at the popularity of the "Harry Potter" franchise and thought they needed to emulate it. What better way than to pair heart-throb Robert Pattinson with Kristen Stewart and adapt the teen vampire series of novels by Stephenie Meyer? Good idea in principle - the stories are better than average, the characterisations and storylines have screen potential in spades - especially when we have some werewolves and good old fashioned jealousy - but somewhere along the line something happened that turned the idea into a mushy, meandering story with two stars who didn't gel at all well on screen; a script that really does no justice to the books at all - and, but for a few scenes at the end with baddie vamp Cam Gigandet as "James", leaves the whole thing totally devoid of any sense of menace or jeopardy - it is all just flat and insipid. The CGI was clearly expensive, but has dated quickly and all told this is a poor effort from all concerned... Can't wait for the sequel; I'm struggling to sleep at night!
