The Twisters

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.

How dares Apple TV sell such a movie ?!!!! I got deceived thinking that this is the new Twisters movie and ended up buying this one . It is so bad that I could not watch more than 30 minutes .....and that took a lot of effort. I don't trust Apple TV anymore .

.i think this movie should be taught in schools as an example and a learning experience of what a bad movie is: a plot that lacks depth, actors' performances that feel forced and unconvincing, a dialogue that is equally bad.

The special effects, which I had hoped would be a redeeming feature, are a joke and only serve to highlight the movie's overall lack of quality.

I would not recommend to anyone. Save your money and time for something more worthwhile.

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.

Leave it to The Asylum to bring a movie called "The Twisters" onto the table following in the wake of the former movie "Twisters" also released earlier this year. Even before sitting down to watch this movie, there wasn't a sliver of doubt that this was going to be a movie from The Asylum. And voila.

Writer Jeffery Anderson put together a fair enough script, and in all honesty this wasn't as bad as you would other assume from a movie spewed out by The Asylum, and one riding on the success of "Twisters" nonetheless. I was actually adequately entertained throughout the course of this movie.

However, it is a rather stereotypical and predictable movie, and I just love how all the bad things that happen in the movie because of the winds happen to take place right around the main characters and interfering with their oh-so-plausible plan to thwart Mother Nature. It was ridiculous, and I am amazed that writers still conjure up scripts like this where a small group of people go against the forces of Mother Nature with a ludicrous plan to save Planet Earth and emerging victorious. It is a formula that has been wore thin and down to the bone.

Of the entire cast ensemble, I was only familiar with actor Paul Logan. While I was not familiar with the actors and actresses on the cast list, I will say that the acting performances were fair.

Visually then "The Twisters" was not as bad as you otherwise expect when sitting down to watching a movie from The Asylum. The CGI effects were actually good. Sure, the movie also made use of some stock footage of tornado aftermath, which felt a bit cheap, but it played out well enough.

My rating of director Michael Su's 2024 movie "The Twisters" lands on a five out of ten stars.

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.
