I’m personally not a huge fan of Melissa’s, but, I’m actually glad I watched this (repetiveness aside) because it helps me understand a bit on why Twilight seemed lacking in so many ways. I loved the movie, because I’m loyal, but I really thought the screenplay and direction left a lot to be desired.

After watching this, I understand it wasn’t only a budget crunch for the first film, but also a time crunch for the production of the screenplay. I’m still not her cheerleader – but I can definitely sympathize with tight schedule they had and the results that it produced.
