i would give it 5/10. The Sound of the tornadoes in this one fell flat. The music made it feel more cheesy, and the story was boring. With original twister i felt like i was always at the edge of my seat but twisters failed to do that for me.

@@CoHostColby1 appreciate your assessment! I have affinity for sound design and can agree with you that this one was just OK. They definitely prioritized visuals. As far as the music, I like that they skewed more country but I did miss how Van Halen set the tone in the first.

After seeing it twice now, E.J. and Powell make for very winning presences both individually and together. I saw it the 2nd time purposefully in IMAX Thursday night just before its IMAX slots got taken over by DP 3. On an industry note, I agree with your concern! I don't like the current and bizarre trend of filmmakers who are immediately handed big budget movies [1] right after their immediate previous features-well-received arthouse/indie films. What happened to gradually climbing up the skill ladder by making various medium-sized budgeted films in between like Denis Villeneuve had done? Because more often than not, this type of illogical upgrading results in cookie-cutter fares at best. So while I'm glad that _Twisters_ was competently made, with L.I. Chung's [2] touches coming through, some big reasons that this movie is engaging enough is that it's well-shot and the editing gives its physical relations coherency. As such, cinematographer Dan Mandel and editor Terilyn A. Shropshire deserve a lot of credit. *Footnotes* [1] _Twisters_ costed $155M. [2] His previous film is _Minari_ (2020)-A24 again!

The relentless country music blasting is not fun. The score of this film is very well-done and is easily up to the task of boosting its scenes. Honestly the country music is just shy of being unbearable.

You did great! I hope your channel grows! The movie was trash! The thing is that they had 24 years to come up with a good story and deliver on the promise. They failed big time and i hope they never get their 200 million investment back.
