The long-awaited sequel, Twisters, has finally arrived, and the big question is: does it live up to the hype? This review analyzes the film's key aspects, from its visual spectacle to its narrative strength.
The visuals are undeniably stunning. The CGI tornadoes are terrifyingly realistic, showcasing the sheer power and unpredictability of nature. However, visual effects alone cannot carry a film.
The plot, while ambitious in scale, feels somewhat familiar. New characters, including a storm-chasing influencer and a hardened survivor, are introduced, but their development is rushed. The emotional connections feel thin, making it difficult to fully invest in their plight.
Ultimately, Twisters delivers on the promise of thrilling visuals and adrenaline-pumping action. However, a weaker narrative and underdeveloped characters prevent it from reaching its full potential. A decent popcorn flick, but not a storm for the ages.
