Twister Audience Reviews

CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!
TeenzTen An action-packed slog
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
TownRootGuy Who knew you could make a story about wind interesting. I wonder, if after the filming was done, Paxton was overheard saying, "Storm over, man. Storm over." Twister has a good cast, great eye candy, very nice FX AND if you can't laugh at flying livestock, I don't want to know you.This is a good flick and a must see for all us Helen Hunt fans. I can watch this every 5 - 7 years.
Marshal Phipps If there is one thing I've noticed about this film is that there was much negativity from reviewers when it was released and frankly I don't understand what they were expecting, it's a movie about storm chasers in a tornado outbreak trying to launch a probe into a tornado, if you wanted something more like the meaning of life you're not going to get it here. When you make a movie revolving around a natural disaster (like The Day After Tomorrow or Into the Storm) expect the action to muffle the plot, it's a challenge to make a disaster movie with adequate character development and have it not be panned by reviewers.The film is good since the plot and stunning visuals keeps you watching from start to finish and you want to sympathize with the main characters while they try to succeed with their goal while going through a major conflict.
adonis98-743-186503 Bill and Jo Harding, advanced storm chasers on the brink of divorce, must join together to create an advanced weather alert system by putting themselves in the cross-hairs of extremely violent tornadoes. It's funny how back in the 1990's there were so many great Natural Disaster Films and now there's only like 1 or 2 of course i'm talking about the movie "Twister" starring Bill Paxton, Helen Hunt and Philip Seymour Hoffman and it does have a very simple premise and story that fans won't be disappointed plus the special effects for a 1996 movie were actually pretty enjoyable and the performances by the 2 leading actors were very good it's for sure not the movie that you would expect to be nominated for 2 Oscars but it's still an enjoyable action flick that will definitely keep you relaxed.
billie My family didn't like watching this movie so much where I tried to watch it whenever I could, until I finally bought the DVD. It made me love the movie even more when my husband and I were on our first date and I found out it was his favorite too :) ! Our love for the movie has apparently/hopefully been passed on to our two-year-old son, he was getting excited last time we watched it. So, it may not be completely technically currect on somethings but it's the storyline of chasing tornados and the action that goes with that that I love so much! It's a great movie about not being hung up in the past and doing what you love. (I think it'd be interesting to see it remade with our current technology but at the same time I don't usually like remakes, half the time the essence(I guess) of the movie gets lost.)
