"Twilight" Review
November 24, 2008 by Jane Boursaw
| Movie: Twilight * Official Site | In Theaters: Nov. 21, 2008 |
| Runtime: 122 minutes | Directed by: Catherine Hardwicke |
| MPAA Rating: PG-13 for some violence and a scene of sensuality |  Gecko Rating: |
I haven’t read the “Twilight” books yet, but I went into this movie expecting big things based on the massive fan frenzy. I wasn’t disappointed. “Twilight” is romantic and thrilling, whether you’re a teenager or a mom, and even though some of the content is dark, it’s still warm and uplifting. How does it manage to do that?
