The Sequel We've Been Waiting For
Twisters is set to be released in 2024, a sequel that's
thrown back to the '90s in all the right ways, including an '80s-inspired
plural title. What was I looking for in Twisters? A fun disaster movie with
thrilling twister action, perhaps even a few cows flying by the screen.
Unfortunately, no cows flew by, but the cast did a fine job.
The New Cast
Daisy Edgar-Jones leads Twisters with heart. She has a
natural gift for predicting weather patterns and where the twisters will sprout
up. Just like in the original movie, there are lots of twisters in close
proximity and quick succession. Anthony, a character I initially didn't
recognize, added depth to the story, while Glenn Powell's character brought a
modern twist to the sequel. The cast, while having big shoes to fill, managed
to bring their own flair to the movie.
The Plot and Its Execution
The plot of Twisters mirrors the original in many ways.
The competitive storm chasers have been replaced by private companies and
YouTubers with flashy attitudes. Despite the modern updates, the core of the
movie remains the same—get close to the twisters to scan them and survive the
monster-like storms. The twister action was fun and intense, making the movie
feel like a thrilling ride.
Filming and Technical Aspects
Twisters was filmed in 35mm film, which added a
nostalgic and authentic feel to the movie. Directors often say that CGI blends
better on film than on digital, and it showed. The movie felt like a genuine
throwback to the '90s, not just in its setting but in its technique,
atmosphere, and tone. The use of 35mm film made the disaster scenes more
immersive and organic.
Conclusion
In the end, Twisters delivered a fun, unbridled
disaster movie experience. It didn't require much brain power, just a
willingness to enjoy the ride. Glenn Powell and the rest of the cast brought
their characters to life, making it a memorable sequel. If you enjoyed the
original Twister, you'll likely appreciate Twisters for its nostalgic nods and
modern updates.
