Either way, she'd a bad actor.
(Well, not bad, but not the best.)
The year Kristen Stewart was noted for making bank in film she worked on one project after the next all year. She may have made more than other stars but shed played her cards right. She was the big thing in film (probably will be again) and was smart enough to go from project to project while the iron was hot. Supply and demand, Twilight made alot of money. People wanted a piece of the pie.
those twilight movies sucked. The series made money from fan girls who have no idea what good acting is. Stewart did a barely competent job of acting in those movies.
I can't believe I watched the first 2 movies.
who the hell falls in love with an obviously gay vampire and a shirtless werewolf with cut offs? CUTOFFs
I give her acting a solid "C"
