  • Twister screams 90's style. To the campy script, serviceable acting and questionable visual effects...this was one disaster movie that stuck me and is actually a guilty pleasure. The story is basic but behind this is the romance between our two leads. Helen Hunt was fantastic and the late Bill Paxton was full of charisma. The visual effects for most of the tornados are great...but there is one scene showing a satellite...literally looked like a Microsoft screensaver it was that bad. This is a watchable, enjoyable disaster flick...but I acknowledge the amount of flaws it has.
