User reviews
The 2024 The Twisters is an exciting but flawed disaster film that offers moments of thrilling action alongside noticeable weaknesses. While it’s entertaining and even educational at times, it’s held back by subpar visual effects and a weak script that undercuts the potential of its unique premise.
The movie does a good job of capturing the chaos and danger of tornadoes, and it’s engaging enough to keep you watching. However, the characters feel underdeveloped, making it hard to connect with their struggles. The visual effects, crucial in a film about natural disasters, often fall short of being convincing, which weakens the impact of the tornado sequences.
Overall, The Twisters is a fun watch for fans of disaster films, but its flaws in execution prevent it from being as impactful or memorable as it could have been.
