So I decided what the problem is with Twilight: the screenwriter. Melissa Rosenberg, according to Wikipedia, was only given 5 weeks to write the whole script for Twilight. She was rushed and didn't really have any time to think about it. Even a twenty minute episode of The Office takes two weeks to write, so this whole movie in 5 weeks is really fast.
Then we have Catherine Hardwicke, the director. She's only directed three other movies, and those movies are in completely different genres (religion, sports, immorality), so her lack of experience in direction (of mostly Bella) is pretty obvious.
So I've decided that the actors and effects were great, but completely hindered by their written dialouge and direction. So good job Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. Your youth shows through in your role, but you never had a chance with such a horrible script and director. Sorry.
