    Twister

    I remember seeing this film in the year it was released, 1996. I was very young then and I absolutely loved it!
    It was such an adventure which I couldnt get enough of! I watched it over and over again! I just really did love it! really!

    Its been critcised by tons of people over at empire online. pah! Its great!

    So I watched it this evening and what can I say? I still love it!
    Its so cheesy its great! Bill Paxton is my favourate actor and I think he is hilarious in this!

    His motley crew of tornado hunters are great - you can recognise this on almost every single one of them from something but you cant put a finger on it!

    Great cast! Great cheesy film. I guess i like it because its a film I grew up with, along with Willow and The Goonies and Star Wars. Anybody else like it?

    Haha I loved that film, the best bit has to be when they go into the barn to get away from the twister and it's full of sythes and things

    Dodgy science, but an enjoyable movie that didn't concentrate on the usual major killing-spree action. Helen Hunt is also quite nice in it, in a strange sort of way.

    Thats exactly what i was just thinking mate, is a nice change from the films where there is a murderer on a mass killing spree. Never really used to like it, but after being really bored yesterday watched it and found out i did like it.
