I think that what this movies strides for is important. It uses this as a way to talk about issues that effect people of colour but it wants to be more than it is.
This is a Halloween-teen movie. The message gets lost because this type of film isn't strong enough to carry it.
The writing is bad but it is mostly the dialogue. People who write movies like on earth, they talk to other humans. Why then write characters who don't talk like real humans? It drives me crazy. "Girl, even tho I'm hot I can't fight vampires" that is like paraphrased but it's lines like that! They drive me insane!
It's not as bad as the reviews would have you believe. It's quick and clips along nicely. So even if you don't like it, the credits roll before you know it!
