One of my all time favorites.
... View MoreWhen a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
... View MoreStory: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
... View MoreEach character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
... View MoreInto the Storm is a pretty poor remake of "Twister," except devoid of feeling and triumph.You have several different stories about characters we simply cannot care about, that they're trying to make us care about and a bunch of cool tornadoes. In "Twister," along with the quality characters there is a sense of momentous achievement being witnessed and the strive for one's long journey to be reached, through all the heartache along the way. This film just kinda plots you in and says care about these people, well no I didn't. However it isn't unwatchable and is somewhat thrilling. I liked the tornado lifting the Pete character into the sky. He got to live out his dream, except he didn't get to share it and then plummeted to his death. If this was turned into an animation comedy, one of the smaller tornadoes would of come and tried to pick up the fat kid, but then required a second one to lift him, like Homer and the spaceship beams. :)The time capsule idea, while poorly executed in the film got me to thinking. Now if you knew someone did this time capsule thing you could really mess with them by putting something in the footage that they wouldn't find out for how ever many years. This idea may have already been done, but a quality premise for a film I'd say.
... View MoreAlmost TV movie. The wrath of goad in the twister dance. Twisters come and come again until there is no footage. Pretty good special effects and a visit to heaven. Silly but satisfies like godzilla.
... View MoreI had only "heard" of this film from my times reviewing IMDb to see what films Alycia and Sarah had been in and noticed they were both in this one, so it was must watch because I am a fan of both actors.I did not expect to like the film as much as I did! I am a hardcore fan of Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton's Twister and can watch it anytime I see it on television, so a movie about stormchasing I thought would have the same feel as Twister, but this one felt like fresh storytelling.This had drama, action, suspense, horror (imagine having a building collapse on you and water filling up the spaces so high that you are floating underwater, hanging on for dear life so you don't die while being suffocated)...my only criticism is I wish it hadn't ended so abruptly after the storm had passed. I would have like the story to continue on and wrap up in some way when it came to Allison and Gary's chemistry.
... View MoreI will admit that the special effects in this film are extremely impressive. From that angle, you are catapulted along with the story, but really? another movie about tornadoes??? And with the same tired formula: father has lost wife and teenage children have become distant from him. Enter disaster and challenge and they come to each others aid, and in so doing, become bonded again as family. "I love you Dad!" :-) Or the mean guy obsessed with making $$$ so much, that he risks the lives of others to get video of an approaching storm. But as I said, for effects, this film rocks!
