Daisy Edgar-Jones stars as Kate Cooper, a former storm chaser haunted by a devastating encounter with a tornado during her college years who now studies storm patterns on screens safely in New York City. She is lured back to the open plains by her friend, Javi (Golden Globe nominee Anthony Ramos, In the Heights) to test a groundbreaking new tracking system. There, she crosses paths with Tyler Owens (Glen Powell), the charming and reckless social-media superstar who thrives on posting his storm-chasing adventures with his raucous crew, the more dangerous the better. As storm season intensifies, terrifying phenomena never seen before are unleashed, and Kate, Tyler and their competing teams find themselves squarely in the paths of multiple storm systems converging over central Oklahoma in the fight of their lives.

Critics Consensus

Summoning a storm of spectacle and carried along by the gale force winds of Glen Powell's charisma, Twisters' forecast is splendid with a high chance of thrills.

I wasn't blown away by it... It's not particularly well-written.

It’s like you’re chasing tornados from the front seat of a roller coaster.

A couple of reasonable expectations… that are completely absent: three-dimensional characters and a sincere appreciation for the landscapes and the inhabitants of these small towns.

Rated: 2/5

n+1

Powell as Hawksian man works fine, but Edgar-Jones, a Brit playing a New Yorkified Southerner who sounds like Anne Hathaway, never quite rises to the challenge of having a personality.

Chung has crafted a mixed bag held aloft by old-fashioned star quality and a genuine interest in what makes those violent whirlwinds whirl.

There’s a refreshing retro quality to “Twisters” that’s found in how the filmmakers value the cast and personalities and leverage them to bolster their spectacle.

Rated: 3.5/5

Twister was one of my favorite movies as a kid in the 90's, and this easily 1-uped it. I was pleasantly surprised that a reboot was even better than the original. Drama, redemption, relationships, perfect level of CGI...not too hokey, but just hokey enough. There was very little to complain about. Highly recommend, and so happy to have seen it at theaters.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great movie story. There are real people who chase twisters and this movie was close to accurate. The only thing I didn't like was there were too many ultra close ups.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Action packed and intense, I thought much more than the original. But this one lacks the heart and levity of the first, but honesrtly that's a tall order. A must see on the big screen if possible.
