Julia O The acting was horrible, all the way around, I wanted to like it but OMG If I could of gave it a 0 I would of. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/25 Full Review Kenneth H This had to be one of the cheesiest movies I have ever seen. Awful special effects, treacly dialogue, but it’s almost worth watching to laugh at how really, really bad this movie is. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/05/25 Full Review Andrew R This ISN'T a disaster movie.....the movie itself IS the disaster. As someone who wanted to be a filmmaker as a career it always puzzles me why ANY producer or company with a couple of extra dollars would invest money into doo doo like this. The guy with the broken down truck that gets sucked up into the tornado had me chuckling, it was worth a rewind. I would even say the idea of a giant tornado during the Christmas season, at the end of December is preposterous in itself.....unfortunately I HAVE been IN a serious tornado on Christmas. In the wee hours of the morning before dawn on Christmas morning 1987(COULD have been 1988)....A large tornado tore through Williamson County Tennessee, through the town of Franklin and several smaller surrounding communities, several people were killed, extensive damage was done. The trees along the bank of the large creek behind our house were uprooted.....the bank and creek bed looked like they had been turned over upside down. There was so much rain the night before it turned our creek into a small roaring river.....and it was SO warm that Christmas day the neighborhood kids and I took the inflatable rafts from our swimming pools and went swimming and rafting down the creek.I remember I was worried that Sana Claus and his reindeer were killed in the storm lol Sadly, the story I just told has more substance and is more interesting than even 60 seconds of this "movie" And I would rather be in ANOTHER tornado than have to sit through the rest of this lol The ONLY things that I can say are even remotely interesting about this useless drivel are the fact that I'd say I'm about 99 9 percent certain this poopy was inspired by the Christmas tornado experience I lived through because I cannot recall, in my lifetime, another F-4 tornado hitting a community on Christmas Eve/Christmas morning....giant tornadoes and temperatures in the 70s during late December are NOT even remotely normal in Tennessee.....temperatures are usually in the 20s-40s this time of year and this area is more known for it's disastrous ice storms this time of winter than severe thunderstorms and tornadoes. I've been through several nasty ice storms on Christmas during Christmastime....including one REALLY foul, nasty ice storm that left us without electricity and heat through Christmas Eve and Christmas day....it's a SERIOUS bummer when you get a brand new Nintendo game system for Christmas and can't plug up or enjoy the gift you begged for nonstop and been impatiently waiting on for months....for 3 days....who cares about the heat not working, I have a jacket, I want my Nintendo NOW! The writer and producer of this "thing" had a lotta gall and lotta courage to make and unleash this poo poo to the moviegoing public 😐🤢🤮 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/04/25 Full Review Jan K Jan K. Dumbest disaster movie I’ve ever seen. Casper Van Dien should be ashamed he was in this most flat, one dimensional, nothing, movie!! Just mindless dialogue. What a disappointment! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/21/24 Full Review Zachary Jacob S Christmas Twister has to be the most soulless film I've seen in a long time. It's not to the "so bad it's good" level, like, "The Amazing Bulk". It's purely a waste of time. Cringe dialog and acting. A forgettable score. EXTREMELY unlikable and shallow characters. And no real story. Nothing really happens? I mean things happen, but it doesn't feel like it. By far one of the most maddening films I've ever seen. Would NOT recommend. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/03/24 Full Review Jason M D yep this was so bad and boring the story and plot was very bad i did not like this movie at all Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/23/24 Full Review Read all reviews
