Twisters is odd because it's not really a sequel to the original Twister (1996), nor is it a remake. It's its own thing. And that's kind of a good thing. This film is highly predictable, which takes away a lot of the suspense, but it still manages to present a few exciting moments. Also, I expected the visual effects to far surpass the ones from the 90s, but they honestly seem about the same. And there are far too many characters for me to care about any of them individually, except for Glen Powell, who is a whirlwind of charisma. Even with all its eye-rolling moments, I enjoyed watching Twisters.

Nowhere near as good as the original. Why did they feel the need to remake this? Why can't studios come up with their own new ideas instead of remaking past great movies? What has happened to Hollywood? Where has creativity gone to? It's like they fired or all the best creators quit in Hollywood. I just don't get it. Why are so many movies so horrible today? It's so sad what's been going on lately.

I would highly recommend just watching the original again instead of this mess. The visuals are OK (sometimes), but the original's effects were really good as well, and that was decades ago. The acting and story was subpar at best.

2 out of 10 - save yourself some money and watch the original instead.

I want to keep this brief because there really isn't so much to say about this film. The plot is beat to death, with the emotional and plot pivot beats being as predictable as a marvel movie. The film doesn't take itself all that seriously, which is certainly an upside considering how mediocre it is. Every now and then the humor is pretty good and Glen Powell's performance easily is the best out of the two leads. One huge shining mark for the film are the gorgeous wide shot visuals and awesome destruction and effects of the tornados. They did a great job of capturing the beauty of the American midwest.

Beisdes these things, it is an entirely predictable and forgettable film about finishing the job after a haunting tragedy. Despite how average it was, I still enjoyed the film, at least enough for a random Wednesday.

Twister is an absolute travesty, a cinematic disaster that not even its colossal budget could save. It's painfully clear that this film was cobbled together with the sole intention of squeezing every last dime out of impressionable teenagers, capitalizing on the nostalgia of the original classic. The sheer audacity of the filmmakers to slap a big, famous headline on this monstrosity is infuriating.

This movie has effectively tarnished the legacy of the original "Twister," dragging it through the mud with a lifeless plot, atrocious dialogue, and special effects that somehow look worse than what we saw in the 90s. They even had the nerve to cast actresses who are so dangerously underweight that they look like ten-year-old boys-it's not just unconvincing, it's downright disturbing.

They must think we're fools, but anyone with a shred of taste will see right through this cash-grab abomination. Avoid this movie like the plague; it's a gross insult to cinema and to anyone who loved the original.

Recently saw the 90s version with the same title starring Hunt & Paxton which was an epic disaster thriller. It was better than this one in every sense be it casting, acting, emotional connect or gravity & intensity of scenes. One thing though seemed to have improved is the visual effects and why not, it's been 30 years since the previous one got released. It's the least they could have done.

Kate, a former tornado chaser is lured back to study a series of tornados expected to hit Oklahoma. Still haunted by a devastating encounter with a tornado during her college years, she crosses paths with fearless Tyler Owens, a modern day tornado chaser cum blogger and his awesome team. In 1996 version they had this alert system called Dorothy which was supposed to track the nature of the tornado. In this film they go next level to mitigate the tornado itself.

Daisy Edgar Jones looks great but disappoints with her portrayal of Kate. Her performance lacked the vigor and magnitude that Hunt's character had. Glen Powell carries the whole movie with his ever-charming role. Though this movie lacked the thrill that the other Twister had, maybe because of the better cast involved in the earlier installment, current version excels in the visual department. Those Tornados looked realistically awesome on the big screen.
