Got an idea for next month's banner?
Went to see Twisters. Needs more tornado, less pointless romance.
Seems to be getting decent reviews. Was the plot decent?
Depends on what you consider decent. Plucky science girl has bad tornado experience, 5 years later she returns at the behest of an old friend. She's there to science but hello loud but attractive rival storm chaser. The plot you would expect from this set-up ensues.
Ah right. Standard hollywood plot applied to a twister theme. Enjoyable enough if you're in the right mood but nothing special and nothing ground breaking.
It really needed like 30% more tornado and better cinematography. Oklahoma big sky did not get the screen time it could have had..
OK yeah if you're gonna spend $150M making a film about tornados, I'd better not leave wishing I'd seen more tornadoes.
