Twister This exciting, if improbable, action adventure, with some devastatingly effective 'twister' sequences, follows the efforts of two rival groups of hurricane hunters to race to the root of a tornado and, by launching a scientific equipment pack into its eye, record valuable data concerning its structure. Stars Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt do all their own stuntwork, but acting honours go to Jami Gertz as the 'other woman' who comes between them.

Yeah ok the sfx are good, although a little unbelievable. I suppose it gives a little insight into a storm chaser's life. But to be honest I find the film a little too far fetched. Worth watching once for the fx.

Excellent action packed blockbuster with special effects to match that even by todays standards look realistic. A classic film which I still enjoy to this day. Paxton and Hunt's chemistry in this film make for a great underlying love story. A great modern day classic.
