"Hardwicke has connected so intensely to the Meyer novel that it's hard to imagine anyone else making a better version." — Kenneth Turan, L.A. Times

"Hardwicke still manages to find the sweet spot where Gothic literature and the iPod meet and make goo-goo eyes at each other. Without embarrassment, she and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg dig right into the almost generic simplicity of the story." — Stephanie Zacharek, Salon

"Twilight is an earnest fantasy set on the cusp of adulthood, just as the way the light falls on everything in your life is changing. I don't blame anyone who wants to linger there for a moment. Even with sparkle vampires." — Bryant Frazer, Film Freak Central
