Audience Member Metal Tornado Movie Review! So. By the name, I already know what to expect. But this movie surprises me in the strangest of ways. And when I say strangest, I mean boring. This movie is boring beyond my comprehension. The premise is thus: A magnetic tornado forms out of a flawed design which seeks to absorb energy from solar flares. Now, it sounds ridiculous; The Asylum's kind of ridiculous. Here I am expecting to see a lot of bad CGI, which there is; bad acting, which there is; and bad story development; which more than predictably, there is. However, the thing that takes the cake is the lack of any action or metal tornado. The thing pops up every so little often to show you a glimpse of what it can do. And then in the end, it's just so underwhelming. And let me remind everyone that one of the tornadoes, yes there's more than one, is just never mentioned again. 1 out of 10 (.5 stars) Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Topical disaster action movie something bad happened's and someone saves the day......... Metal tornado is a little weird though. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Metal Tornado is as scientifically plausible as an episode of PBS's The Magic School Bus, yet everyone involved treats it like an episode of Through the Wormhole. There's not enough cheese to be entertaining; in fact, with as much "scientific" jargon everyone's bouncing off each other, you might think you accidentally switched to the Science Channel. Then you stand corrected when the tornado pops up, and that's when you realize you better start drinking more if you're gonna make it through the rest of the film. If anything, this movie proves that Angel Guzman's been putting all that Calculus Jaime Escalante taught him to good use.

The tornado has subsumed all the loose change in Lou Diamond Phillips' pockets! Now how will he be paid?! Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member This might even be a C-. Poor Lou diamond Phillips, his career must be in the tipi let to take this one. Magnetic vortexes spawned by clean energy seeking scientists trying to harness solar flares. ð??© Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Any movie titled "Metal Tornado" only has so much potential, and director Gordon Yang is somehow able to exceed that potential. Granted, this is a Sy-Fy original film, but it's one of the best ones I've ever seen. The plot is thoroughly, preposterously, completely, utterly ridiculous, far beyond the range of even the most insane man's realm of possibilities... But then again, it makes much more sense than Sharknado, so I guess it's somewhat logical for a Sy-Fy original. The acting is top tier for the genre and the script surprisingly consistent. There's something about this movie that makes it entertaining in a way that almost no other Sy-Fy films are. Bottom line, if you like dumb, absurd entertainment and/or the crazier half of sci-fi movies, this was made literally only for you.
