Fun distraction submitted by yugure on June 21, 2013, 8:06am Okay, so maybe this isn't a particularly great "film," but it's still a fun distraction! When I was much younger I was really into natural disaster movies and this was one of my favorites at the time, so recently I thought I'd give it another watch to see if it lived up to my memories of it. While the special effects don't particularly hold up (not enough to take you out of the movie, though), I was still intrigued by the story and felt tense during the most intense scenes.

Twister submitted by SBNB on July 12, 2014, 10:52pm I loved this movie. I bought it on VHS when it first came out, and I want to get the blu-ray one of these days. The story's not bad, and it's fun seeing all the tornadoes.

T submitted by a2sue on August 12, 2017, 12:26am Twister has a lot of special effects and a halfway decent plot. It was OK overall...
