Twister

CriticsCritics: 68
AudienceAudience: 6.5

As a wave of powerful tornadoes sweeps across Oklahoma, a determined storm-chasing team races to test a new device that could improve how twisters are tracked and warnings are issued. A former member rejoins the chase, bringing personal tensions and a competing team into an already dangerous pursuit.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you want fast-moving disaster thrills, big tornado set pieces, and an upbeat adventure; Not for you if you need a fresh story or deeply developed characters.
