Greg Alba and Tara Erickson dive into their reaction and review of Catherine Hardwicke’s 2008 young adult fantasy romance Twilight, the film that launched a pop-culture phenomenon and redefined teen romance for a generation. Based on Stephenie Meyer’s bestselling novel, Twilight follows awkward new girl Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart, Spencer, Still Alice) as she moves to the rainy town of Forks, Washington and becomes irresistibly drawn to her mysterious classmate Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson, The Batman, Tenet), who harbors a dangerous supernatural secret. The film is packed with instantly iconic moments, from Edward’s supernatural save in the school parking lot and the biology-class tension, to the moody baseball game set to Muse, and the unforgettable revelation of Edward sparkling in the sunlight. As Bella is pulled deeper into Edward’s world, the story introduces key figures like Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner, Abduction, The Ridiculous 6), whose friendship complicates Bella’s loyalties, and members of the Cullen family including Alice Cullen (Ashley Greene, Bombshell, Aftermath) and Carlisle Cullen (Peter Facinelli, Nurse Jackie, The Unborn). We break down the film’s brooding atmosphere, its mix of romance and danger, and why Twilight remains such a polarizing yet enduring entry in YA fantasy cinema. #Twilight #TwilightSaga #YARomance #RobertPattinson #KristenStewart #EdwardCullen #BellaSwan #VampireRomance #FantasyRomance #MovieReaction #YAAdaptation #Vampire #Vampires #MovieMarathon #React #ReactTo #Reaction The Housemaid (2026) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/gLUnDptXRIU Twilight (2008) John & Roxy's Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/3JbQk1-O9rQ Interview with the Vampire 1x3 Reaction: https://youtu.be/noAEPW5e4hQ Heated Rivalry Episode 1 & 2 Reaction: https://youtu.be/I-sdN9Udozk Bridgerton 1x5 Reaction: https://youtu.be/6x9tj08NGsc 0:00 Checking in! 1:52 Twilight Reaction 42:45 LIQUID IV 44:27 Twilight Movie Reaction 1:21:00 Twilight Review Follow *Tara Erickson:* https://www.youtube.com/@TaraErickson https://www.instagram.com/taraerickson/ https://twitter.com/thetaraerickson Follow *Greg Alba:* https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ https://twitter.com/thegregalba Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Head Editor: https://www.instagram.com/prapermedia Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Co-Editor: John Humphrey Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG Ask Us A QUESTION On CAMEO: https://www.cameo.com/thereelrejects PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Movie Talk (News, Spoiler Reviews, & Film Rumors!!!): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw8fPQ-21NVSb2IOwIiHbVt8 Youtube Video Reactions & Discussions: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_qwcPsN_vOxXC6IVzrOQYG Sketches & Short Films: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_zWuTRfBOUP3aYyIYRzc2y
