Movie Reviews of Twister [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Tornadic Activity
Summary: 4 Stars

The movie Twister is one of my favorite "disaster movies". I have watched it 50 or more times. The special effects are so cool and the acting is really good, especially Helen Hunt, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, and Jami Gertz. I have owned the regular DVD for some time and because I recently acquired a Blu-ray player and love the great picture and sound it affords, I decided to duplicate this movie and get the Blu-ray version. I have to say that after watching it the first time I can't really tell that much difference in the Blu-ray compared to the standard wide-screen version and was a little disappointed in that. I didn't think the resolution of the picture was as good as the other Blu-rays I have seen. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt that maybe the sound was a little better. As prices of Blu-rays continue to drop I will continue to purchase them in lieu of the standard ones, but right now they are still fairly pricey. BUT if you love Twister and have a Blu-ray player I still recommend you buy the Blu-ray because it is closer to the price of the standard DVD than many current releases and the sound alone is worth that little difference.

Movie Review: Lets do the twist
Summary: 4 Stars

This movie has been around for years but only when it came out on Blu-ray did it peak my interest. Twister is a great mix of action, comedy, suspense, and just straight up corny-ness. Its the kind of corny that you can't turn away from for some reason. Almost like it was done that way on purpose. The tornado scenes are fantastic! The audio just begs to be played loud, and the picture just like most every blu-ray, is mind blowing. To sum this up quickly because I must get going, twister on blu-ray is a recommended addition to your blu-ray library. If you watched it on DVD or even on VHS way back in the day, then I suggest you revisit twister on blu-ray, and get twisted!

Movie Review: Twister BD
Summary: 4 Stars

Love the power of nature...from a distance This movie does a fairly good job of protraying the freightening qualities of tornados, but the technology used to create the special effects in this movie is getting a little long in the tooth. Still, I think it's the best tornado movie to date.....but do we really need one? Too bad the technology doesn't exist to more accurately predict the path of a tornado. I can remember, growing up in Kansas, how we all piled into the family car to escape what we knew was certain death, only to wonder which way to go.

BD music is very good and exceedingly ominus when played in a decent home theater.

Movie Review: Twister on Blu Looks Cool
Summary: 4 Stars

I have always been a fan of this cheesy movie due to it's awesome special effects. It wasn't disappointing, the picture, the sound, the effects all look and sound great. I feel that it is a big improvement over the initial DVD release that was marred with artifacting and poor picture quality. If you own a Blu Ray and like this show it is worth adding to your collection. I feel I should mention that the extras here are not much to write home about.

Movie Review: Definitely worth putting in your Blueray collection
Summary: 4 Stars

I have always loved watching Twister ever since it was released. Since I didn't have the dvd version, I just went ahead and bought the blueray version. After viewing, it was quite what I expected, the image quality is really good, a step-up from the dvd version. Almost a good transfer, expected with older movies. Some artifacts here and there. The blueray is more standard high definition. Has awsome 5.1 surround sound.
