^I saw it too and gave it a 2 and a half.
I laughed out loud, but not as much as the rest of the theatre.
I took a couple of 12-year-old boys, who found it far more hilarious than I did, which is no surprise.
I totally loved the actress they got to play "Becca" and thought she NAILED Kristen Stewart. Her speech patterns, her mannerisms... everything. She exaggerated them slightly, for comedic effect, but not to an annoying degree.
At times, I forgot it wasn't Kristen Stewart.
Like all parodies, it was slightly over the top and cheesy at times, and I wasn't sure why they were bothering trying to go along with the Twilight plot, following so closely.
A Zolturi dude in the beginning was sipping on some True Blood, not the bottles they use on the show, but it said "True Blood" on it.
Lame that one simple bite with no blood exchange "turns" one into a vampire, but whatever.
In the beginning, the soundtrack has some song where the lyrics say something like, "I wish I could find a cool, tortured boy..." and I found that humorous.
It could've been funnier, and would've been, had we all been together to snark on stuff.
Oddly, I laughed the loudest at a stupid part. Edward and Becca are about to kiss for the first time and he says, "I want to try something."
She says, "Oh, role playing?" And whips out a mask, I think Barack Obama, and puts it on. It's got this big cheesy, toothy grin. When she turns around with this rubber mask on, while they're sitting on her bed, and faces him, I busted out laughing. LOUD.
Their take on the "I know what you are" scene was different than all the internet spoofs too.
She says something like, "Your skin is pale, and you don't have sex... I know what you are."
He says, "Say it."
She says...
Kinda clever.
