About this movie

Twisters brings back the blockbuster disaster epic with a whirlwind of heart-stopping action and exhilarating thrills. Ever since a devastating tornado encounter, Kate (Daisy Edgar-Jones) gave up chasing storms across the Oklahoma prairie to safely study them on screens in New York City. Lured back to the field by her friend Javi (Anthony Ramos) and a once-in-a-lifetime scientific opportunity, Kate crosses paths with Tyler (Glen Powell), a charming daredevil and self-proclaimed tornado wrangler whose thirst for tornado-tracking adventures made him a social media sensation. As storm season intensifies with terrifying phenomena unlike anything seen before, Kate and Tyler realize they may need to work together if they are to have any chance of taming, and surviving, an unprecedented outbreak of destructive tornados.

Ratings and reviews

This movie had all the elements of the original classic, "Twister." While this definitely isn't a sequel, (in my opinion) it was the best addition they could create with the complexity of the original film. "Twisters" is a completely different movie and story line, with a touch of modern flare. It was another masterpiece that had the same feeling as the original movie with a similar plot structure. Definitely a good family movie.

Saw this in theaters, and it was an absolutely incredible experience in 4DX. Scientific terminology included, with a 75-85% accuracy. Visual effects were remarkably well-made. Definitely recommended for scientist and non-scientists alike.

Such an expensive movie, but it didn't feel as good as I thought it would.
