But if you have seen one of dozens of TikTok videos poking fun at some of the cringe-y dialogue, acting, and special effects of some of the Twilight movies, then you might be able to understand where some of his embarrassment comes from.
Why does Robert Pattinson hate ‘Twilight’?
Judging by what Robert has said about the Twilight movies in the past, it’s not so much the actual movies that he can’t stand but more so the fandom surrounding them that affected his life for quite a while.

He said during a Moviefone interview around the time of the Breaking Dawn Part 2 release that he would “mindlessly hate [Twilight] without having seen anything” if he hadn’t been involved in the movies.
