Twilight Movie (2008)
A teenage girl risks everything when she falls in love with a vampire.
Bella Swan has always been a little bit different. Never one to run with the crowd, Bella never cared about fitting in with the trendy, plastic girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother remarried and Bella chooses to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she didn't expect much of anything to change. But things do change when she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen. For Edward is nothing like any boy she's ever met. He's nothing like anyone she's ever met, period. He's intelligent and witty, and he seems to see straight into her soul. In no time at all, they are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance - unorthodox because Edward really isn't like the other boys. He can run faster than a mountain lion. He can stop a moving car with his bare hands. Oh, and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. That's right - vampire. But he doesn't have fangs - that's just in the movies. And he doesn't drink human blood, though Edward and his family are unique among vampires in that lifestyle choice. To Edward, Bella is that thing he has waited 90 years for - a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. Somehow or other, they will have to manage their unmanageable love. But when unexpected visitors come to town and realize that there is a human among them Edward must fight to save Bella? A modern, visual, and visceral Romeo and Juliet story of the ultimate forbidden love affair - between vampire and mortal.

This is the best movie ever and the good news are there are three more coming out soon.. yay
Great movie also for the reasons others will give, but I add that you can learn valuable lessons to apply to your life and you really need to read between the lines to understand what I'm saying here;)... and if you are reading this, you have the superpower to figure things out and see what most will miss.
Among other reasons to see Twilight, it depicts superpower concepts which though extraordinary, the understanding, that,{naturally or as a gift of our Creator, people have their own individual set of talents and abilities of which they have a greater natural proficiency than most others,}can be applied to your life and, once recognized and with understanding that they can be developed further, they can be an enhancement to what you can accomplish.
Vampires make really great baseball players!
We are all different. What are your superpowers? See Twilight for many reasons, but, while you enjoy it, also notice the different abilities of each character and relate it to your life and learn what you can enhance in yourself and others. I try to gain something valuable from movies. Sure, the movie is fiction, but that doesn't mean that there aren't real life meanings to gain from the movie. The concept of superpowers is a valuable self improvement and self worth concept.
What are your superpowers? I will tell you mine.
We all have them. Perhaps it takes another to recognize them. Perhaps they aren't recognized and hence not developed to their potential. Perhaps I will be the one to recognize your superpowers.
