Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

amkbcj I found this movie to be entertaining and a lot of fun and after all isn't that what movies are for: fun and entertainment?No, there was no great scientific accuracy on tornadoes or nuclear plants but who cares? It isn't a documentary. The acting was pretty good from a great cast and the characters are likable and believable. The story line was entertaining and exciting even if it was not based on hard core reality in all areas. This movie held the interest of my family and friends from start to finish and the comments on heroes and villains alike kept coming. All in all an engaging movie and with popcorn and snacks added it makes for a great Saturday night.

TheLittleSongbird What is there left to say? Atomic Twister is nothing more than an atomic mess. I suppose there is some novelty value on viewing, but again that is if you are watching the film in the right mood. For me I actually was finding myself laughing at all the logical fallacies that have been outlined very well in previous reviews, at the scenes that were meant to have been set in a nuclear power plant but actually looked like they had been shot in a room under someone's house and at the truly unbelievable, stilted dialogue. Atomic Twister also has the increasingly contrived relationships that formed the very predictable and already far-fetched in concept story, the unlikeable and stereotypical characters and the terrible acting from all involved with Sharon Lawrence overacting and Corbin Bernson has been much better especially in Psych, where he's used much better. All in all, some may revel in its awfulness, if not it will physically hurt to watch it. 1/10 Bethany Cox

Wolf (alphaspace) I can't imagine how this film got the green light under any circumstances. One the plot is so bad I could not make it worse if I tried. Its about a nuclear power plant in a southern locale that gets close to a meltdown because of or in tandem with Tornados.The thing that makes this movie so bad is it looks as if the nuclear power plant shots were filmed in someones basement. The pipes supposedly carrying radioactive water are way too small. The control room for the power plant look like the family room with a few more computers than normal. The pipes carrying water steam eto this reactor are way to small to fill be part of any reactor system. The door leading to the containment building is laughably small and thin.If you know anything at all about atomic power this film is hilarious for all the just couldn't happen stuff you see going on in this movie. The movie is stupid. I can not imagine why anyone would want to buy it which is why I suspect AMAZON>COM don't even carry it and you can buy almost any DVD or VHS from them..

Theo Robertson I will give this TVM some credit for getting off to a good start even though it`s basically a remake of the opening of TWISTER . Such a pity it`s revealed as " A boy reading a story to his friends " sequence . I will also give the producers some credit for casting a fairly fit actress as the heroine and praise too for the director for concentrating on Stacey the babysitter`s cleavage as she play`s twister with the heroine`s kidWell that`s all the good bits mentioned , what about the bad ? You do get the feeling that no one on this TVM has any knowledge what so ever as to how nuclear reactors or tornados work . If this teleplay is set at a nuclear power plant then why`s it called ATOMIC TWISTER ? Surely atomic power plants and nuclear power plants are different things ? They`re operated by diesel pumps ? They have no back up power source ? Tornados can creep up on you without you noticing them ? And if you think that`s unbelievable wait till you see the pretty boy cop trying to save the day . Most cops would put on their lights and sirens , put their foot on the gas and drive all the way to the south pole . Mind you don`t run down any penguins officer
