    See it on a big screen!!

    I caught an advance screening and found it a heck of a ride and thrilling fun to watch. I thought it really delivered the experience of being close up and inside the most power weather on the planet, and left me with images that I continue to chew over with awe. For a "disaster movie" it felt extremely realistic, and when you see news reports on TV or YouTube you realize this stuff happens again and again, usually in small towns just like the one in the movie, so it's completely real and they didn't really make any of this stuff up. And I really felt for the characters who, just like real people caught by these events, don't want to be in a disaster movie, they just want to get out of there alive. It got pretty emotional by the end.

    I don't get all the negative reviews I've been reading, I thought it was really good and delivered a great night out. What do people want, stupid Sharknado? Whatever, I had a good time watching it. And I'm glad I caught it on a big screen instead of renting it later. Seeing it big and overwhelming is the way to go!

    Predictable turn around

    Yes pun intended. Also I thought the movie was not as bad as I thought going into it. And while I do like watching movies in 3D, I think it works best that way, especially considering this is all found footage. And yes there is a reason why some people try to do what the title says. But it's not all the people, some do try to get away from it too, you know! Just saying.

    Back to the pun(s), you could also call this a "Thrill ride", "merry go round" and a few other fun names. But the movie itself takes itself seriously most of the time. Some light moments aside of course, which are needed. It might not always make the most sense, but it's suspenseful from start to finish and very well shot at that

    Massively surprised by how good it his film was. Ignore the negative reviews.

    I picked this up for a quid second hand and thought may be worth a watch. Never heard of it before. I was really surprised by how good it was. Especially the special effects. I expected an 'Asylum studios' level film but this was amazing. Great cast.....including the beautiful woman from Fear the Walking Dead. Good story and stunning special effecta. Kept me gripped throughout.

    One of the best tornado disaster films I have seen.

    Unsure why woany negative reviews.

    Saying worst ever!? Are they insane!? Far far worse than this hidden gem.

    Best pound I have spent.

    Worth it just for the Tornado scenes.

    Into the Storm was not a movie I had a lot of expectations for. I just wanted to have fun seeing huge tornadoes destroying everything in their path. And that's what I got for the most part in this movie. The first 15 minutes of this movie was so bad, the dialogue was atrocious, the characters were annoying and the writing was completely abysmal. But as the movie starts to show more of the tornadoes, it got really fun really quick. the movie got so much better.

    One of the best aspects of this movie is how close you really get into the tornadoes. You go inside it and it looks frightening and beautiful at the same time. The visuals look amazing when you're in the movie theater. This is definitely a movie that should be seen in your nearest theater, because it was such an experience seeing the tornadoes, hearing the train-like noise when a tornadoes comes barreling towards the cities and cars. It's just so awesome.

    One of the weakest aspects of this movie are the characters, we just don't care what happens to them in the movie. But the tornadoes are terrific and they keep coming on at you every twenty minutes or so for two hours. Now this can be a little tiresome, but "Into the Storm" does stop itself just in time before it completely overstays its welcome.

    In the end, it's not a very good movie by any stretch of the imagination. Again, this is the film that one will either like as a guilty pleasure, like me, or you won't care for it at all. And even if you do like the movie, there is still one big lapse in the whole thing that you realize at the end. If tornadoes really did show up as often as they do in the movie in the same general area, there would be nothing left standing in the Midwest anymore. It would all be leveled.

    Poor and Corny Story, but Very Impressive Special Effects

    It is graduation day in the town of Silverton and the sons of the vice- principal Gary (Richard Armitage), Donnie (Max Deacon) and Trey (Nathan Kress), are responsible for filming the ceremony. However, Donnie has a crush on his mate Kaitlyn (Alycia Debnam Carey) and he has the chance to go with her to an abandoned chemical facility to help her in an assignment, leaving his brother alone. Meanwhile the storm tracker Pete (Matt Walsh) is advised by his meteorologist Allison (Sarah Wayne Callies) to head to Silverton where a tornado will probably appear. Pete needs to prepare footage of tornado for the producer and he drives his truck Titus with the cameraman Jacob (Jeremy Sumpter) followed by the equipped van with Allison, the driver Daryl (Arlen Escarpeta) and Lucas (Lee Whittaker) to film the tornado. However, several erratic tornadoes arrive in the town and seem that there is not no safe shelter to protect the inhabitants of Silveton.

    "Into the Storm" is an entertaining movie with a poor and corny story and very impressive special effects. The movie gives the sensation to the viewer that he or she is near of inside a tornado. The bad thing is the story, with clichés and stupid attitudes. Donnie and Kaitlyn are trapped in a chemical facility plant with water but no contamination by chemicals. Kaitlyn is wounded in the ankle, but in the end she can perfectly walk with Donnie. The family drama of Gary and his sons is clichés and boring. The part supposed to be funny with Donk and Reevis is silly. My vote is seven.

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Some people have questioned whether or not a strong tornado could actually lift an aircraft like a 747 as depicted in the movie. Tornadoes have been known to pick up railroad engines before. An SD40-2 locomotive which is an average sized locomotive weighs 368,000 lbs. An empty 747-400 weighs 393,000 lbs, so there is not that great of a weight difference. Also, the wings would make the 747 more aerodynamic than the dead weight of a locomotive. So theoretically it would be possible for a 747 to be picked up by a strong tornado.
    • Goofs
      At the end of the movie in the drain the wind blows in the same direction before and after the eye. After the eye the direction should be reverse.

      Gary: There's another tornado heading this way

      Principal Thomas Walker: And you want us to go outside?

      Gary: You don't understand.

      Allison: Yes you have to.

      Principal Thomas Walker: This is a storm shelter for Christ's sake.

      Pete: Not for this

      Allison: Will you please believe us. We have been out there and we know what this thing can do.

      Principal Thomas Walker: I am not going to risk having hundreds of dead people...

      Gary: You will have hundreds of dead people if you stay here.

      Allison: Sir. I have been studying storms all my life, alright? This one is bigger than any one that has ever been. Do you hear that? It will flatten this building in seconds.

      Gary: With or without you, we're getting these people onto those busses right now.
