Twisters - Movie Review

Chris Stuckmann reviews Twisters, starring Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell, Anthony Ramos, Katy O'Brian, Brandon Perea, Maura Tierney, Tunde Adebimpe, Kiernan Shipka. Directed by Lee Isaac Chung.

[@TheLongestTake]

We had several tornados touch down in my area on Monday. Viral marketing for this movie has been craaaazzzyyyyy

[@DetectiveTrupo203]

One time, when I was living in California, I was watching Oceans 13. Part of the plot is that they use a large subterranean machine to intentionally create an Earthquake, to ruin the grand opening of a casino. It gets to that part of the movie and the room starts shaking. It was such perfect timing I was certain someone was shaking my chair from behind. And no one was, it was an actual Earthquake that happened so perfectly I still struggle to comprehend the odds of it happening exactly when it did.

Storm photographer here. Cannot wait to see this, I already bought my tickets for tomorrow. All I want is a mindless, fun weather action movie and it sounds like that’s exactly what it is. Fun facts: the studio originally wanted Tim Burton to direct the first Twister and they wanted Tom Hanks to play Bill. God what a different movie that would have been. 😂

It's also worth noting that this movie was shot on 35mm film. I'm honestly glad other filmmakers (besides Quentin Tarantino, Christopher Nolan, Paul Thomas Anderson, and Wes Anderson) can still shoot on this format, and not just rely on digital ALL THE TIME. It definitely proves that the Analog Renaissance is alive and well.

Sincerity is what makes ‘80s and ‘90s great. They weren’t self aware, so those movies radiate passion. For better and for worse.

[@Arrogan28]

You mean they were not constantly doing that post modern joke, or meta one liner etc. I am so sick of that now. The issue with breaking the suspension of disbelief like that is you destroy any chance of letting the audience get into the experience and put themselves into the viewpoint of the characters. And if that doesn't happen, then empathy is extremely low for the characters. This film is so bloody awful, I truly am shocked that people think this is a good movie. The whole deep dark night of the soul moment consistent of the good looking guy in the cowboy hat saying 'But how much more are you going to let this thing take from you.', and the female protagonist is magically cured and wants to try the thing she literally just called 'a children fantasy' all over again at the possible expense of people's lives.. but don't worry, not this time, because while her old boyfriend got killed, he wasn't as good looking as this new one, so plot armour the audience knows will make it different this time.... The level of empty headedness this movie has compared to the first has Michael Crichton spinning in his grave at what they have done to his story/script.... I'm sorry, but there is no depth, nothing in this film at all resembling intelligence, or originality...

My mom is a big fan of Twister. I can't even begin to guess how many times I saw it growing up. It's such a fun disaster film with likeable characters. Twisters was a lot better than I was expecting. It's not as good as the original, but that's ok. The characters were good, the dialog was fine, and the special effects were well done. It feels like an old school blockbuster, or as close as we've gotten to one in a long, long time.

[@wileytheacmesalesman7760]

I live in the border of Kansas and Oklahoma. I remember when they were filming Twister all around the area, seeing where they trashed the landscape to make it look like a tornado went through, recognizing the roads and bridges in the movie, etc. it was an exciting time. As far as the weather in the movies, we just call that “Spring” around here lol.

[@animal1439]

As a kid my parents were obsessed with all of those mid 90’s disaster movies. We had (and still have) vhs copies of all those classics Chris mentioned, but Twister was always my favourite of the bunch. Twister was an absolutely perfect mishmash of adventure, humour, intensity, and sincerity that very other movies have managed to accomplish. I’m so glad to hear that the new one is a worthy successor, and I can’t wait to take my parents to the theatre this weekend.

[@alexburns1330]

I'm so glad many people had so much fun with this movie, because truth be told, I did too! As far as I'm concerned, this is another great example of bringing back a nostalgic IP from the past for modern audiences and doing it justice by executing it properly and most effectively. Also, fun fact, the original director choice for this film was actually Joseph Kosinski, the director of Top Gun: Maverick, another movie that I also feel like did a great job regarding doing justice to another nostalgic IP from the past that you are bringing back for modern audiences. However, the reason why Kosinski dropped out of directing this film, is because he was too busy doing and filming a movie he will be directing next year in 2025, in the form of a racing movie starring Brad Pitt called F1. As a result, they got Lee Issac Chung instead, to fill in for director duty. Also, regarding Lee Isaac Chung, who I know along with this film, directed the 2020 film Minari, has already decided what his next film will be, which is an untitled love story movie starring Steven Yeun.

[@JAlexanderCurtis]

Your mention of Dante's Peak, makes me want to go back and watch that movie. I watched it a bunch when I was a kid, it was an old favorite, but I haven't seen it in at least a decade or more. I wonder how it holds up as an adult.

Interesting that there were two volcano disaster movies released in 1997, with the other one in downtown L.A. but the better one of the two is Dante's Peak, more suspense, more spectacle, and the special effects still hold up.

I watch Twister at least once a year, always on a hot, thunderstormy night (must be way over 30 times by now). I saw Twister in the theater, own it on VHS, DVD and Blu-ray, and recently ordered my copy of the 4K release.

I was traumatized by the opening scene from the original film. As an adult I recently rewatched that scene and laughed at the hilariously overdramatic sound design, from the subtle animal growls mixed in with the wind noises to the straight up laser beam sounds for the lightning.

I feel like they should have either went full on reboot or sequel. It seemed like a reboot from Kate having the same abilities Bill did, predicting the weather, but they had Dorothy in it, so the continuation of the original movie was there, yet they didn't reference any of the original chasers at all. Hugely missed opportunity of not having Kate being the daughter of Bill and Jo, even if Helen Hunt didn't want to do the movie, make it the actress that played the Mom in this one be her. It was a fun ride overall, there were just a lot of plot points missed.

[@jeremyAyeH]

Strongly disagree. NO suspense, no build up, no part of the movie actually scared me or made me nervous, CGI of people getting sucked away was stupid and funny looking, characters were boring had no personality except Tyler. The concept that a trailer of barrels of ANYTHING can cause an overshooting top of a supercell to IMPLODE and a MILE WIDE TORNADO to dissipate in seconds is outrageously ridiculous. The only good things about the movie were the CGI of the tornadoes and the scientific accuracy (up until the imploding storm). 4/10 at best, and an insult to the original.

I had a wonderful time with "Twisters." This was actually my first 4DX film, and it was quite an experience. The seats moved during the action and driving scenes, there were constant mist and thunder effects during storm sequences, and that climax in the movie theater was really a sight to behold! I've never felt so involved and into a movie before, and if you can afford the high price, I can easily recommend seeing the film in this format!

In the past year or two I noticed how much more often I go to the cinema to see new stuff because it seems like things got exciting again without being a bombastic IP and/or budget, and I keep thinking back on you, Chris, and not just you lamenting the state of the cinema and the death of a mid-budget movie. And now it feels like the turn happened. And now to your point about sincerity, yes, I hope there's going to be more of that, it felt very refreshing. Before my screening there were trailers for the new Deadpool, and for some movie with Kevin Hart and Cate Blanchette, which seems to try to capitalize on The Guardians of the Galaxy vibe, and both already feel outdated tone-wise. Or at least not fresh. Thank you for both these insights!

Nope, there's a LOT of country music in this movie (because is located in the south)

[@godder1an]

Aint no love in oklahoma Is the new humans being!

[@swedishZ0mBi3]

Of course Chris grew up with Twister as well x)

This is how you do female empowerment. Facing her fears and her trauma to save the people in the theatre.

[@scottleggejr]

Ya the sullen, weak, lead character ruined it for me 😂 Helen Hunt saw her father zip away and it made her charge to the storms to figure it out. Chicken little who never talks is timid and fails a lot.

[@peterherron4222]

Hi Chris. Been following you for years and just had to come to your latest video to say congratulations and much love for your wonderful success with Shelby Oaks. You took your shot and hit the bullseye. Congrats again, it gives so many of us hope.

Twister is the GOAT disaster movie. Unbeatable.

[@Tom-kq3ng]

The original Twister is unironically one of my favorite movies of all time It came out the year I was born, I’ve probably watched it a hundred times and I love it, despite clear and obvious flaws I would’ve gone to the movies to see this, even if it sucked, but I’m glad to hear it doesn’t lol

[@fictionfisher7869]

I feel like this is going to be "Bro Country" The movie.

[@lukebaxter3252]

I just came back from seeing this film today as of writing this and almost every seat was filled despite this being out for nearly a whole month. And this film was just so much fun. A true big screen experience. If only I saw it in IMAX.

[@David_7171]

The first movie was better. This one is rubbish

[@mickbanner]

My problems: A man was blown off her back and into the sky yet her hair didn't move. He goes out of the way to find her for her miraculous instinct for storms even though she killed his friends for not recognising how big a storm was. The man hires a woman after her friends died and then he's in shock she's got PTSD about storms. Glen's crew were given just one line of character development...douche. They acted like being around the storm was a race even though their missions were completely different and there's enough room for all of them. The music throughout is grating. The gormless Brit is tantamount to xenophobia at this point. Watching Glen pull up to Kate in the car, give a "charming but cocky" smile then driving off became tiresome. To show her empathy...Instead of going to find the data they've collected, she insists they go to a small town affected to "help'. Cut to ruined house and she's handing the house owner a photo album that's on the floor. In One scene they make 4 people leave a brick built building to go stand in the open. 2 of those 4 people died. Thats all.

Sell out

how

[@RoyceLithgo]

When I saw the trailer I thought this looked like a clone of the first movie. I’ve always been a huge fan of Twister. I gave Twisters a chance and was not disappointed. Loved this movie a lot. Great story and extension to the original plot. I loved the references to the original as well. One of my favourite movies this year. Thanks for this great review which is what got me interested to see it.

[@claytonrios1]

If you feel it chase it! Two belts can't save you from a tornado!

[@alefnull]

Twister has been one of my favorite movies of all time since the first time i saw it after it released. i've watched it easily approaching 100 times since the 90s. i've been super hesitant about this movie since the first trailer and finding out it basically has almost nothing, if anything at all, to do with the original, and as far as i could tell, none of the original cast. but this short review gives me at least a little bit of hope, so i'll certainly give it a chance at some point.

[@uzziman9659]

Do you even review movies anymore??? What happened to you....

[@leotomo]

He is reviewing this film. He has been busy making his own movie to be fair

[@RestingBeachFace721]

Hollywood won’t stop until it remakes every single one of its movies

[@thetrendsetter-yt7lh]

There are lots of films that aren’t remakes. Maybe you should just go to the theater more.

[@The_Ostrich]

Acolyte review when?

[@LowTide941]

Why? Shyte sucked

[@Amoraszune]

Sorry, but if he didn’t review it, he probably didn’t like it.

[@ozymandias1099]

Not worth it

​@@Amoraszune Your comment makes zero sense, but its fine, this is the KZbin comment section, I don't expect to see sensical people.

I did the same. It was definitely a wild ride watching it that way. I hope you have as much fun as I did.

[@whoputyouontheplanet3345]

As an equally avid fan of the original, I 💯 agree. I also loved that they give subtle nods to the original like showing that Dorothy became an established tech within the series, the food scene, and even had it's own "Jonas and Eddie" but took it in a different direction. My sister and I are also storm chasers (we're the "Twister Sisters" lol), and we we really liked the fact that the movie drops facts throughout, and even paid homage to a real life town El Reno that was hit by one of the worst tornadoes since Jarrel. That tornado claimed the life of Tim Samaras and his son.

RIP Bill Paxton. This one is for you.
