Back in 2016, I reviewed a little franchise based on a series of books named Twilight and they weren't my best. So, I decided to re review the entire franchise as one of this year's first franchises to review and we're starting with the first film and while it has it's issues and I know it's bad, there's still a part of me that can enjoy the ridiculously stupid concept here.
Sypnosis
High-school student Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart), 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 (Robert Pattinson), 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.
