13 minuti

The effects were good---but that was only a few minutes. Too much simpleton soap opera. The large cast of characters that is self-defeating TV quality script..

This movie was plain awful. For those saying it was full of liberal talking points, that may be true. Here's the thing though, I'm as liberal as they come & this movie was horrendous. It doesn't matter if you lean left or right. Terrible is terrible. Terrible acting, terrible story, just all around terrible. While watching, it crossed my mind that this movie had to be some sort of money laundering scheme. One of the worst movies I've ever seen. Honestly.

Just like all the other reviews say this movie is a typical gender X film. It has gay / lgbt/ abortion / womens body rights blah blah blah. This could have be a GOOD movie about a bunch of strangers coming together (this is what I thought it would be) but instead typical Hollywood disaster with political crap.

Several families in a small town face danger and possible disaster when a thunderous tornado hits the area, each person has very limited time to react to the fast moving situation.

It's actually not bad, compared to some of the films I've suffered in recent times, it really isn't that bad. Despite its general casual pacing, there are some real moments of tension, with the real life terror coming from knowing that these things happen.

You have an hour of character development, so pacing could well be a huge issue for traditional fans of disaster movies. The first hour is slow, some of the characters you'll like, some you'll loathe, it's very soap opera, after an hour, you get the action, and the film moves from 1st, to 4th gear, it becomes altogether more appealing.

It's clearly a low budget film, but visually it's not without merit, it looks pretty decent I think.

Some of the acting is decent, some of it feels a bit Hallmark channel. You will see plenty of well known faces, including Peter Facinelli, in what is perhaps not his most challenging role.

I know this is going to get hated on, bits it really not bad, 6/10.

The essence of this disaster movie is the same as all other. Get the audience emotionally attached to the characters, have a disaster, then pick straws to see who survives. Problem is there have been a few Tornado movies in the last few years, all of which have been equal to or better than this one. The acting is okay, but it's too drawn out and you end up not caring who's pushing up the daisies.
