Movie review : Into the Storm

Share

intothestorm

In the span of a single day, the town of Silverton is ravaged by an unprecedented onslaught of tornadoes. The entire town is at the mercy of the erratic and deadly cyclones. Most people seek shelter, while others run towards the vortex, testing how far a storm chaser will go for that once-in-a-lifetime shot. Told through the eyes and lenses of professional storm chasers, thrill-seeking amateurs, and courageous townspeople, “Into the Storm”throws you directly into the eye of the storm to experience Mother Nature at her most extreme.

PROS

  • Excellent visual effects , makes you feel like you are in the storm yourself .
  • The story is compelling, and very emotional

CONS

  • It was some what unrealistic that Trey (Nathan Kress) was holding his video camera and recording the whole time they were looking for his brother .
  • The movie was a bit predictable .
  • Some of the characters were forgettable and added nothing to the story .

FAVORITE QUOTES

Allison:  I’ve studied storm all of my life. This one is bigger than has ever been.

Pete: That’s the biggest tornado I’ve ever seen.

CONCLUSION

I went into this movie with no expectations .I had seen the trailer but didn’t get much from it .That being said , I found this to be a very interesting , intense and gripping movie . I was literally on the edge of my seat . If you are a fan of ‘disaster movies’ it may seem a tad bit predictable , but what gets you sucked in is the human element , the personal issues the characters are dealing with while trying to survive  the storm . All in all it is a fun movie to go out and watch .

  1. Movies are opium for the masses. They are just another tool to shape and fashion your thought pattern and you blindly,eagerly wait to watch this trash. Read a book on your tablet please!!!
    Read Ivan Van Sertimas book, They came before Columbus.

    • Zagaze if you do not like movies why are you always the first to comment on the reviews!!!! Just ignore them ,nobody is putting a gun to your head and forcing you to watch these movies . Go and read your books and leave us to watch our movies .

    • Helishsa if i can disgust you as much as i hope i have, then i just might push you into reading books in an effort to discredit my pronouncements. that is my goal: Disgust movie lovers to such an extent that they try to discredit me with what they will consider informed points of view which they would have read from a book or article. that way i would have achieved my goal of getting you to read more than before!!!
