I liked it more than I thought I would. But I also went in with expectations that had to be dragged up from the cellar.
It was really smart of them to get someone as charismatic as Robert Pattinson in this role... enough lines rang hollow in the movie anyway that I was snerking the whole way through, but I could just keep trying to figure out what was going on behind Pattinson's eyes, and I stayed interested. He was a better Edward than book-Eward ever managed to be.
