Its twist may be predictable but Twisters is wildly fun
Does an extraordinatory job working with a familiar formula. Most would feel they've seen it before, or literarlly have with the original Twister, but the movie feels fresh despite its rather predictable storyline (and plot twist).
The visual effects make for a great reason to see it on the big screen. You will expect to see tornadoes a quarter of the runtime, and you will, but it does not get old and keeps the thrill for the most part thanks to the sensitive direction by Lee Isaac Chung (Minari).
On the acting front, the supporting cast is competent although I'd prefer the male lead to be a little less captain america-ish and with more depth. But Daisy Edgar-Jones maintains the narrative drive, convincingly portraying the climate scientist with charm and prose.
Overall a great fun summer flick.
