Twister

admin

Twister is another favorite of mine. It is an exaggeration of what Tornados do. Not that they can’t be as vicious as shown in the movie just that you won’t find so many tornados that are that strong in so short a time.

Twister stars Helen Hunt who many had seen on the television series ‘Mad about you’. She plays the part of a tornado researcher who is about to test a new device, called Dorothy, that releases golf-ball-sized sensors into a tornado. The problem is that they have to be almost under a tornado for the device to work.

Her husband appears with his girlfriend and papers to finalize their divorce. She puts him off making excuses then a good storm shows up on radar.

The movie has lots of action and weather The effects are exciting but not overbearing.

If you are looking for a nature based action film, this one is for you.
