Twenty-eight years later, Twister is finally getting a quasi-sequel, Twisters, which, to its credit, has some terrific talent involved. That includes two of the most promising rising stars of the moment, Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones, and a unique choice for a director in Minari’s Lee Isaac Chung. But can it live up to the original?

I saw the original Twister when I was 6. After the movie was over, we walk out into one hell of a thunderstorm. On our way home, we ended up hydroplaning and nearly crashed into a semi. I would like to thank that experience for a fear of tornadoes that enraptured me through my entire childhood.

the original was just so much fun. I would hope this too be a good send up, i didn't expect it too surpass it, honestly, the OG was lightning in a bottle.

it was pretty amazing you'll see alot of easter egg from the original aswell (like alot)

@AidanChinSungLing Ай бұрын

The original was fun but this one is as good if you ditch the "classic is better" mentality. The original has too many movie continuity error and I don't think I caught too many from this one. The OST of the original is unbeatable though.

Main character was making a lot of stupid decisions, but the script kept telling the audience she was so smart. Movie was ok. Better if you saw it for free

I was so disappointed. I looked up on Wikipedia and saw Kathleen Kennedy was attached to this. It wasn't a movie, it was content.

@captmaverickable she was attached to the original, but she didn't have the power she has now. The original was so good, and this one didn't do it.

I would normally agree about the lack of romance in movies today, but the final scene made up for it. I don’t remember the last mainstream that ended on a “cute” romantic moment like that

A lack of a romantic subplot seems like a really stupid complaint tbh

@patricksullivan6492 Ай бұрын

In the end, it seems that most of the complaints about this film in particular, and films in general, are that the film they watched doesn’t meet their preconceived expectations-which is kind of unfair because should just judge the film for what it actually is, not what it lacked in their mind.

@MegaRayland Ай бұрын

The problem is the lack of creative originality, and thus writers and producers are constantly "saving" stuff for future movies (hoping there'll be one) rather than making a fully fledged first entry and then coming up with new ideas for a sequel.

Really had fun with this one ..better than I expected .....dialogue abit corny sometimes lead did a great job but overall good 7/10 Only complaint was actress who played the mother had so much lip filler in her top lip it was ridiculious my partner joked "her lip should have been in the credits ."..😅

@captmaverickable Ай бұрын

This movie was so weird. The original with Jan de Bont was so riveting. It had the romance between Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt but it wasn't forced. And it was not the focus of the movie. This movie was all about the relationship between Anthony Ramos, Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones. And the sound and lighting on this movie was terrible. I almost wanted to ask the movie theater to turn the sound up because it was waaayyy too quiet during the action scenes. But when the credits started rolling with the outro music it was louder than the rest of the film!!

I was 14 as well when Twister came out. I saw it in the theater twice, once with my parents and another time with my friends. I swear that movie made Dodge trucks the IT thing to drive for a few years. My parents even ended up buying a Quad Cab Dodge Dakota a couple of years later. lol.

@sweetmusic3821 Ай бұрын

TWISTERS was so UN-realistic. 😢 The lead male is supposedly a rising KZbin star ... but hardly any cell phones are to be seen in the hands of the townspeople or other cast members. The citizens of Oklahoma are shown watching or participating in outdoor entertainments (rodeo, baseball and street festivals) blissfully UNAWARE that major storms are brewing. BELIEVE me when I say that in Oklahoma, the tornado sirens in the cities would be going off. People would not be caught off guard. The people in the age of KZbin would have cell phones out and they'd be tracking the storms. Also, cell phones would be going off with thunderstorm warnings. ⚠️ The small teams of tornado chasers would not need to warn citizens. Not impressed with the script writing.

@candycane-w7m Ай бұрын

spot on, sweet. the script was a pile.

@ashraymondjames Ай бұрын

There is romance and it was quite refreshing to not see the two leads making out in the middle of a natural disaster. I don’t need to see the physical aspect of every relationship on screen, the emotional one was fully out there and it served its purpose of making us care about the characters. If I got into a fistfight with a tornado, my first thought after it wouldn’t be: well let’s get to fucking.

@littlenickelbushfarm9804 6 күн бұрын

3:47 I agree about movies these days shying away from anything romantic in them. My problem is that when they do have romance, it's almost always instant hookups and raging sex drives instead of earned friendship and growing attraction. Considering that the entire relationship between Kate and Tyler ( which starting with them as rivals) only occurred over the course of a WEEK, I really like that they didn't go right to swapping spit and taking their clothes off. It was a form of storytelling that focused on two people going from rivals, to friends, to romantic interests, without feeling rushed. Yes, I absolutely wanted to see them kiss. But the fact that the movie left me wanting more, was rather delicious.

As far as special effects are concerned, the small details of Twiters are much better than Twister in 1996! When the tornado in the movie Twisters occurred, the surrounding large trees and grasslands in the distance were shaking, which truly showed how strong winds swept the earth. When the tornado in the 1996 movie occurred, the nearby trees and grass were not shaken. Yes, for me, who often watches real tornado documentaries, this is really unreal. As far as the plot is concerned, there are some flips in the middle of Twisters. The characters in the play go from misunderstanding to understanding each other, from opposing positions to working together. In addition, there are also touching plots. In the first scene, the heroine lost her classmates and friends in the storm and came out sad. I almost cried...😢 Finally, evacuation knowledge was introduced into the film Twisters. How to protect oneself on the spot when there is no underground shelter room was also shown in detail in the film, which served as a demonstration and education.

@Pupeyes Ай бұрын

None of this is true. Daisy Edgar Jones was clearly acting at times. The trope of the person who quits their passion due to death in the family is ran to the ground so that was cliche and boring. The main character was more depressing and boring than empowering. And every time they made an attempt to “help” anyone they didn’t do anything. Oh and that song, “All men are easy…” whatever that was that felt completely out of context. People say movies are subjective but I just don’t believe anything you said 😂

I loved Twister and I think this one was fun too. Twister had VFx we had not experienced before, which to me makes it so unique. Twisters looks nice and the "Twisters" do have some gravity to them, but I believe we have just become accustomed to that level of CGI these days, which makes some of the magic dissapear. I enjoyed the movie very much, personally.

Dude, 1 question for you, did you watch this movie in 4DX?, if you did not, you're missing out big time. I watched the 1st Twister and loved that movie. This past Friday I watch this new Twisters for the 1st time in 4DX, I'll be 100% honest, I liked this twister better than the 1st. 1st off, Daisy Edgard-Jones is outstanding. The special effects are better than the original and in 4DX, when the wind starts to pick up, you feel that wind in the theater as well. When you combine the movement of the 4DX chairs with the blasts of wind on each side of your head, at your feet and coming right at you along with some mist in the air WOW, awesome!!!! I give the movie a 10 out of 10 in 4DX. Don't waste your money on IMAX, go see it in 4DX
