This is good for hardcore Twilight fans, but it's also good for those who are interested in Twilight and are more curious about what's real and what isn't in the Twilight saga.

I'm not going to say it's horrible, because it's not. It's better not to have expectations before watching because that can throw your whole attitude of it off. Yes, some people in the documentary are just a little too crazy when it comes to Twilight. But, there are some people on that documentary that are just so happy and at peace with where they live, and the beauty of the place itself along with all of that happiness almost makes you want to live there.

I do think it's kind of moronic for Summit to be making money off of all aspects of Twilight (by having a documentary where the movie takes place). However, it's kind of amazing to see a blur between reality and fantasy, what's in the movies verses what really happens in Forks is not so much different and it's kind of interesting to see.

If you have an hour to kill and you're curious about this or if you're just a die-hard fan- I'd say go for it. But if you're pessimistic on the whole saga or just have small but decent interest in Twilight, it's better not to see it. I personally somewhat liked it, it gave me a new insight on the saga and it wasn't too boring. I gave it a 5.

After the first Twilight series feature I considered that the highlight, for me, was the scenery surrounding Forks. This was mostly not filmed in the real area, so what is the countryside around Forks really like? I found that the net showed a bit and that this showed an interesting little bit more.

I found the first 20 minutes of this DVD, the fan interviews, to be interesting and okay. The rest of the feature also included a bit more of what I was looking for, but not much scenery.

First viewing, Forks as a village, USA speak city, that had depended mostly on logging for employment and the logging industry has scaled down its employment needs. How does the community survive? The rest of the feature covered several different areas that fans of the novels might want to consider but it was this aspect that coloured it all for me.

I read the Twilight series as novels for those who have their feet on the ground as far as reading skills go. To me they call for a reading ability in female fiction of circa age 15 plus and many school kids and older are undented enough to be able to happily cope with that. That suggests that fan stuff can benefit from being at that level too.

First viewing, I got the impression that many fans are likely to be disappointed by what this shows of fan attractions that have been appearing in Forks. It seemed more like fifteen year old girlie. Second viewing, for when drafting this review, much of that impression changed and it was mostly just the tour choice for the Cullen house that felt weak.

This is a fairly low cost DVD and in some ways I found it worthwhile, if easy to misinterpret 180°.
