Into the Storm Reviews

Another version of the movie 'Twister'. Not because both the movies are about tornadoes, but takes place in a similar fashion where a group of twister/storm analyzers/chasers goes after their thing only to come out in a messed-up state. Forget the 'Twister', lets talk about this film. It had better effects, but that did not give the visuals like the natural occurrence, mostly they over-used it. I can call it a display for commercial purpose than reality, that's what Hollywood is famous for, isn't it?

The fun part was, the tornado(es) behaved like it had a soul and conscious like any living organism. 'Final Destination 5' was one of the best digital 3D movie at that time, when it comes to the awesome pop-ups and very disappointed with this film which was crafted by the same director.

The plus point was, it mildly entertains with a merely good pace of narration. Definitely it is not a category-A movie, if you want, you can say it because of the actors. The real reason is the performances from the cast was not noticeable. If one, one person had a strong hold up on his role the movie might had clinched its success. Due to CGI rule, actors are not getting a better scope for their characters. That's very sad, but true. You can watch it for entertainment or timepass, but not expecting seriously.

5.5/10

I love weather disaster films. This in my opinion is so much better than the movie Twister with Helen Hunt and I loved that movie. This is one occasion where I didn't think Sarah Wayne Callies was a boring or whiny character. I enjoyed the characters and thought the actors portrayed them well. I have to say the father and the Twista Chasers. Speaking of the Twista Chasers they reminded me of the Ghostfacers from Supernatural with quite a few similarities between them. The tornado scenes were intense and epic. There were some pretty crazy death scenes throughout. My personal favorite would have to be the guy getting sucked up into the burning tornado. It was mostly a found footage sort of film with a few very short sequences of regular filming style. I felt a great amount of tension through several scenes. The ending was a little silly, but it was a good idea to throw a little humor into this. I thoroughly enjoyed this.
