Movie Reviews of Tornado!
Movie Review: HOT AIR
Summary: 2 Stars
Amazing how Noel Hesseck's direction could make a tornado seem so insignificant. With little special effects of any note, this Twister wannabe suffers from flat, laconic performances, most notably Bruce Campbell and Ernie Hudson. Even L.Q. Jones seems winded and lifeless. An obvious made for TV soapie, that never shows the tornado at its worst. Rent don't buy.
Movie Review: Beat Twister, but only carried out a sucker punch.
Summary: 1 Stars
This movie was so horribly bad that it wasn't even funny. A huge tornado goes through this town and supposedly rips the town to shreds. The damage? Just a bunch of stuff put in the middle of the street in nice neat piles. NO trees damaged, no pavement ripped up, no houses damaged, and no telephone poles pulled over. The worst part was that there no visible serious injuries. Sad.
The so called tornado scenes look like they were made with an Etche Sketch. The aftermath scenes were done with a dump truck and a bulldozer. The "Damaged" property was lying in the middle of the street looking like it had been looted out of the remains of a burned out goodwill store.
The worst part to me though had to be the scene in which they are standing next to their truck, in the middle of a tornado! I've had a tornado go over my house once. A tornado is not like a hurricane, where the eye is all calm. With all the debris that a tornado picks up you'd never even get close to the middle of one in the first place. You'd be picked up and thrown around before you're even close middle. There isn't one chance in a billion that you'd drive into a tornado like a fog bank.
I think that the fact that they were able to communicate, and walk around inside the "Cone Of Silence", was the biggest joke of all. That shoulda been the title of this horidly bad. And they wonder why many directors keep their set closed to everyone and reveal only a limited amount of the plot. This was obviously a rip-off of "Twister". A cheap, no frills version that was hastily put together to beat Twister to the screen.
Movie Review: One Star For Ash
Summary: 1 Stars
This "Twister" knock-off doesn't really offer much as everyone's favorite ghoul-killer plays it straight, chases storms, and seeks a little romance. It is great to watch Campbell in something other than a supporting role, but this is a TV cheapie. On the plus side is a strong supporting cast that includes Ernie Hudson (as Campbell's mentor).The DVD image is full-screen and nothing to write home about. There are no extras.
So, I guess this one is for people who love Ash, couldn't watch "Twister" because of some dislike for Helen Hunt, or just buy anything with a special effect. Now when will "Atomic Twister" get released?
Movie Review: No plot, bad acting and special effects are very low budget.
Summary: 1 Stars
I love tornado movies, but this one such a disappointment. Come on, walking around in the "eye" of tornado? It's obvious the makers of this absurdly stupid movie knew nothing about tornados, or simply chose to ignore reality. The special effects are terrible. The CGI(?) tornadoes more resemble dark dust bunnies than tornadoes. The spinning stocking (or whatever it was) in the old "Wizzard Of Oz" looks better.
