Movie critic Bruce Miller says 'Twisters' whips up plenty of action to be one of the best movies this summer.
Late into “Twisters,” a community is advised to take shelter in a movie theater. There, they’ll hopefully live out the worst of it. When the screen is ripped and devastation begins, director Lee Isaac Chung achieves the blockbuster he’s seeking. It’s a wild ride.
Along for the ride? An insurance company looking to sweep in when devastation makes it impossible for residents to rebuild. It has a series of meteorologists tracking storms and helping beat others to the punch. While “Twisters” is more involved than “Twister,” it does follow a similar route and does feature a cameo by the son of Bill Paxton, the first film’s star.
While some of the scenes are just plain silly, the twister that spins through an Oklahoma town is frightening enough to make you wonder if the theater you’re sitting in is safe.
