4 out of 5 stars Another Twister Movie!   August 29, 2010
LightingStrikes
Night of the Twisters is an excellent movie, cheaply done, but has all the necessities of a proper mother nature furry has her wrath! I was pleased to see that this movie did not blame global warming as the result of the cause of all the twisters. Acting was good, Step-father and step-son's relationship was beautifully developed in the movie. Anyone who loves these types of movies will not be disappointed.


5 out of 5 stars I RECOMMEND THIS TO ANY TORNADO BUFF   August 29, 2010

I watch this movie every now and then because it has such a realistic feel to it. The special effects are better than a lot of disaster movies I have seen. Night of the Twisters also shows how a family unit should hold up under the worst conditions.


5 out of 5 stars "It's at least a 5 on the Fujita scale"   June 22, 2010

That's one of our favorite lines from this movie. LOL!!! If you are looking for a realistic, weather-catastrophe-type of movie, and are very picky about details being accurate, this is not the movie for you. "Twister" is better in that respect (but only a LITTLE). BUT, if you are a science-nerdy-type of person who greatly enjoys picking out all the things that are "wrong" with a movie, and finds it quite humorous, then this is the movie for you! My husband and I are major weather buffs (he was a professional meteorologist, and I'm an amateur hobbyist/trained spotter), and this is our favorite "funny" movie. There are SOOO many peculiarities and inconsistencies in this movie that I could write about; but it's much more fun to watch the movie and find them yourself. We've seen it maybe 30 times or more; and we're still finding things in this movie that are just "off" that we hadn't noticed before. Yep, this is definitely one of our most favoritest movies. However, kids who are scared of tornadoes may be frightened of this movie, because they most likely will not understand WHY this movie is so fake. In my mind, no movie tornado will ever compare to the terrifyingly realistic twister on "The Wizard of Oz," and this movie certainly doesn't even come close. But its entertainment value is worth every penny spent on it. ;-)


3 out of 5 stars Liked Twister better, but this movie is still a decent one   May 12, 2010
Stormy1 (Midwest USA)
This review is on the tv-movie "Night of the Twisters" I saw on TV awhile ago. It's not a bad movie and has a good story plot based in fictional Nebraska town of Blainsworth sometime in the early fall. Some parts of the movie really were quite impressive and most of their special effects [the tornadoes itself] were from fairly realistic to downright realistic. I guess my favorite part of the movie was near the end when they were being chased by the tornado. As I said before, this movie has a good story plot to it and was good enough to keep me glued to my couch for the entire movie.
I have seen Twister many times and Night of the Twisters a few times and a few other tornado-based movies and overall I prefer Twister, but Night of the Twister is still a pretty darn good movie to watch!

My fifth grade students were really surprised at the differences between the book and the movie. Good comparison/discussion activity.
