Tornadoes in Germany, it's very impressive

Tornado - Der Zorn des Himmels is a 3 hour long TV movie that goes as follows. After a heat wave, devastating hail storm, and a dead farmer, the local police are left mystified, however, these are warning signs for experienced Meteorologist January Berger who predicts that a twister will strike Berlin.

Under the name of F4 Vortex on the U.S. DVD release, this German film is very impressive, the visuals are top notch, the pacing is strong enough to keep you watching without losing interest, and the suspense will have you guessing on what will happen next.

This is definitely one of the better tornado films out there, I feel it's overlooked due to a lack of proper feedback, this movie deserves to be seen because of its professionalism for a TV movie.

Watch out for (INCOMPLETE) Amazon version!!

As of April 2018, Amazon Prime has only the first 90 minutes of this movie. FAIL!! Having given this caveat, let me say I did buy the DVD off Ebay: "F4: Vortex", and it's OK. The Amazon version had German voices with subtitles in English, which I would prefer to the DVD which had crummy English dubbing and no subtitles or closed captions available. I am an English speaker.

Oh, and the movie was OK, in a tradition with most 4 hour, or 3 hour without commercials, TV movies.

Quiz
Although it's mentioned by any character, a tornado is measured by its destructive force with the Fujita's Scale. It was named after Tetsuya Fujita, who in 1971 in collaboration with Allan Pearson created a scale to differentiate a twister according the wind speed:

F0: 60-117 km/h or 45-72 mph (light damage).

F1: 117-181 km/h or 73-112 mph (moderate damage).

F2: 181-250 km/h or 113-157 mph (significant damage).

F3: 250-320 km/h or 158-206 mph (severe damage).

F4: 320-420 km/h or 207-260 mph (devastating damage).

F5: 420-510 km/h or 261-308 mph (incredible damage).

F6: 510-610 km/h or 309-379 mph (altough initially Fujita scale have five marks, in 1999 a tornado located in Bridge CreekMoore, Oklahoma, devastated with a force more powerful never seen before. It was the only one F6 registered in history, despite The United States National Weather Service officially maintains that the Bridge Creek-Moore tornado was a F5, not F6).
