Critics Consensus

Having lost much of its bite transitioning to the big screen, Twilight will please its devoted fans, but do little for the uninitiated.

Anne Cohen Refinery29 Ten years after its release, Twilight stands as a powerful, darkly stylish depiction of teen female desire. Nov 15, 2018 Full Review Laremy Legel Film.com My hope is that the sequels are actual attempts at movies. The world doesn't need any more toothless cinema. Rated: C- May 6, 2011 Full Review Manohla Dargis New York Times A deeply sincere, outright goofy vampire romance for the hot-not-to-trot abstinence set. Rated: 2.5/5 Apr 8, 2011 Full Review Ezequiel Obregón EscribiendoCine Twilight is a designed film, with rigorous casting and a somewhat predictable script. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 6/10 Mar 5, 2024 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Though director Catherine Hardwicke’s movie shouldn’t be labeled unsuccessful, it’s certainly uneven. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 5, 2023 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand The sequels became increasingly silly and overwrought but the original Twilight (2008) is actually kind of interesting even if you are not a devotee of the fan fic-turned-bestseller series.

Synopsis High-school student Bella Swan, always a bit of a misfit, doesn't expect life to change much when she moves from sunny Arizona to rainy Washington state. Then she meets Edward Cullen, a handsome but mysterious teen whose eyes seem to peer directly into her soul. Edward is a vampire whose family does not drink blood, and Bella, far from being frightened, enters into a dangerous romance with her immortal soulmate.
