On the outside, I try to project an image of having it all together. But underneath that, I'm kind of a disaster. Hence... the name of the site: GlossyVeneer. Synopsis:
A teenage girl risks everything when she falls in love with a vampire.

I can’t… I just can’t. There’s a whole boatload of trivia about this film, all kinds of crazy minutae for people obsessed.

Rating: PG-13 for some violence and a scene of sensuality

Oh boy… I watched this once and was pretty sure I didn’t care for it. But then I watched it again and I was certain. But then I watched it a third time with the director/cast commentary and knew I pretty much loathed this film. And yet… I’m looking forward to the next one in the series. This series is like heroin, you know it’s really bad for you and yet you keep coming back for more.
I hated the coloring and lighting used throughout. I hated how awkward and stilted every interaction seemed. I hated how low-budget it felt in comparison to the phenomenon the whole series is. I wanted Robert Pattinson to wash, cut and comb his hair the whole time. I felt like Jacob had no chemistry with Bella. The teens at the school were super annoying and didn’t seem to connect with the characters in the book. I pretty much disliked it all.
So why did I keep watching it over and over? And I’m almost regretting sending it back to Netflix because I didn’t watch all the special features.
Cold turkey… that’s what I had to do.
My rating: stars
