I read the book first and was iffy about it, I watched the movie after and thought "what where they thinking" The casting was good. The make-up was unbelievably hideous, yeah it wasn't like the book but it should have had the edge the book had. Bella in the book had a personality, Bella in the movie was pretty much blah but that was directing error. The acting was ok but left a lot to be desired especially since they strayed from the book so much. I just hope that they clean it up for the next movies.
