The Twisters

Unreal! As I walk in the room and see this being purchased I yell "Noooooooo!", it was the wrong movie. Was trying to buy Twisters 2024. Bravo for this company for being able to trick so many people with a release of a similar movie with a similar name. Hopefully more people pay attention when purchasing a movie so they are not tricked into buying a cheap knockoff of a blockbuster that might get a 15 minute view before being shut off. This film will now sit in the graveyard of unwatchable accidental Apple purchases- luckily out of a couple thousand purchases this is number 4 in that graveyard.

Duped into spending $5.99 on THE Twisters; absolute garbage of a movie. Can't fathom that anyone produced this for any reason other than to trick people into buying it based on the title.

The fact that Apple ranked this a top movie to watch this weekend is highly suspicious- feels like nothing but a ploy to take advantage of the average consumer. I work too hard for my money to be taken advantage of by megacorps making grab for any penny possible.

Back to the movie, do not watch it. Do not even look at the trailer. It will waste 32 seconds of your life and make you want to rip out your eyeballs and ears.

I spent $10 and 20 minutes buying this 2024 movie, thinking it was the one in theatres. At first I loved the cheesy corny over the top dialogue and acting. Terrible CGI. My boyfriend hated it, but I was all "wait! They had the money to pay A-list actors and tons of great trailers. It's just an homage to cheesy movies like the original Twisters." Kept waiting for Glen Powell's face. 20 minutes in, I googled it, and realised we (I was) were duped. Why release a movie with basically the same title (*The* Twisters) and the same concept in the same year as a super popular movie? Just a waste of $10.

There are two modes in this movie --- the yelling mode and the boring mode. The characters in this video are always yelling at each other; they do not know how to talk, and yelling is the only way they communicate. The director believes the harder they yell, the tenser the movement will be. When they are not yelling, the alternative mode is boring. The people are not doing anything, just walking back and forth, followed by small talks, empty talks, giggling, or making jokes that nobody laughs. The plot is not very sophisticated and is easily predictable. There are so many movies called "The Twisters", just watch out for this one.

Writing a good solid is hard, that is why writers spend years on a single book. There are a lot of people that go to Hollywood hoping to become actors, but the vast majority of them get rejected immediately, mostly because they won't put out, but also because acting is difficult, with all the emoting and expressioning and stuff. Also, making special effects is a craft that is being honed in decades, an eternal area of innovation and struggle. So surely with terrible writing, bad acting and cheap soulless special effects you can't make a movie, right?

Wrong! I present you: The Twisters, a film so hilariously bad that I had to watch through it all. The bittersweet pain caused by watching completely talentless people trying their best was excruciating. I truly believe this film should be taught at school films, together with The Room, which is itself orders of magnitude more captivating and well done than this.

Must watch while stoned, drunk or otherwise mentally challenged, but it will be worth it.
