Critics Consensus

Clumsily scripted and populated with forgettable characters, Into the Storm has little to offer beyond its admittedly thrilling special effects.

Jake Wilson

Sydney Morning Herald

Most inexplicable, yet potent, are the shots that look down on the devastation from on high, implicitly reducing the entire cast to extras in a movie directed by God.

Rated: 2/5

Unfortunately, long before the storm has blown itself out, the plot has long since come apart.

What we've got here is somewhere between Twister and one of those storm-chaser reality shows, except Jan de Bont made Twister.

Keith & the Movies

At a brisk 89 minutes “Into the Storm” doesn’t exhaust its welcome. It aims for one rather uninspired target and for the most part it hits it.

Rated: 2.5/5

NME (New Musical Express)

The use of practical effects, not just CGI and green screen trickery, recalls old school disaster movies from the 70s ...

When the wind isn't tearing the town apart it's as if Quale doesn't know what to do with the characters or the story.

Not the best movie of course, but it's worth a watch if you like weather, drama ect, characters are ok, kinda forgettable. It has all the stuff you want, storm chasers, amateur storm chasers,, tornado interceptors, and pretty good special effects. And the story is pretty good, it has kind of emotional scenes at times. Only thing I dislike is that we didn't exactly get that much info on the titus, but they explain everything on the titus in one of the scenes so... a pretty good movie!

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

INTO THE STORM is gratuitous and filled to the brim with flimsy characters but it does feature some splendid CGI and disaster scenes. I'm am unabashed found footage fan so I appreciate the documentary angle and that bumped it up to a 3 star for me.

The tornadoes look pretty real and cool. The intercept vehicle is terrible the acting is pretty bad. This movie felt like a documentary because of the editing I believe. I wasn’t into really the characters just the tornadoes really.

Honestly? I don't know anything about tornadoes, so maybe it's the only thing that allowed me to enjoy the movie, but I liked how certain scenes were handled. Using cameras from inside the movie, like phones and security cameras was a good way to have multiple povs and put the watcher in the story. Also, I liked the way the multiple individual stories got tangled together at the end.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Into the storm is no twister they try to follow the footsteps of 1996 but it's so dumb and silly and the lack of writing of the characters are stupid and the found footage is so ridiculous annoying.
