Twisters - Saturday 21st September 2024

I remember watching the original ‘Twister’ in the cinema when it came out in the late 90s. I never re-watched it since then, and now, with the magic of Hollywood reboots and remakes, I’ll never have to!

That’s right, another soft-reboot/remake of a film from not so long ago! How do those geniuses in Hollywood do it?
Still, as something to switch your brain off to, it wasn’t bad. Of course, the female protagonist is practically flawless, and the male character is a bit of a dick, but that’s the formula now, and we have to accept it.
It was entertaining though, and I respected the fact that the male and female lead don’t end up in some unrealistic romance by act three, despite hating one another all throughout act one and two.
Worth watching I’d say, especially if you just want to switch off for a while and enjoy the spectacle.
