Twister: No Twists
"Twister" is a mediocre movie at best. The plot was so predictable my 14 year-old daughter guessed the entire final act of the movie about 30-minutes in.
As always, I monitored the movie for tobacco use, and "Twister" earned a SmokeS...

great weather movie
I love weather movies. I make it a point to see as many as I can. This movie has some cheesy moments and I realized that some of the things could never happen. However, this is probably my favorite weather movie. I don't take it too seriou...

Twister Quick Review
I'm not sure, but Twister may have started the "disaster of the week" movie trend. Back when it first came out, state-of-the-art special effects made up for a weak plot. But in this day in age, the special effects aren't so special anymore.

SILLY OVER THE TOP TWADDLE
by FUZZY SKULL (NORTHPORT, NEW YORK USA)
How often can you watch a group of combination scientist/ summer camp kids ride around in a seedy van and say, staring with glassy vacuous eyes " MY GOD IT'S A CLASS FIVE "
3/5
A Disaster movie
by R. Trivinos (California)
An Ok Movie to kill a couple of Hours. Not a Masterpiece, but for a disaster movie....
5/5
This movie was purchased for my grandson and he loved it.
by S. M. Haan (Indiana)
It came in good time and was in good shape. The jacket and cd were like new.
My grandson (age 10) was glued to the tube the whole time! We'll keep it in our library.
1/5
Stay Away - Not Blown Away
by William E. Sandoe (Ephrata, PA United States)
This movie pegs the "Oh-Yea-Sure" meter way to often. I can't think of anything good to say about it.
5/5
kids love it
by Doris Gardner
This movie arrived in a timely manner and was in great condition. My grandkids keep watching it.

--jim Emerson
A mile-wide, 300 miles-per-hour force of total devastation is coming at you! In this adventure swirling with cliffhanging excitement and awesome special effects, Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton play scientists pursuing the most destructive weatherfront to sweep through mid-America's Tornado Alley in 50 years. By launching electronic sensors into the funnel, the storm chasers hope to obtain data to create an improved warning system. But to do so, they must intercept the twisters' deadly path. The chase is on!
