Twisters (2024) is awesome really enjoyed it, I’ve seen it twice now I enjoyed it that much. And yes you don’t have to have seen Twister (1996) to enjoy this one, but you absolutely should lol! Twister is a 90s classic! Definitely worth watching

I’m carrying Man’s opinion here, I enjoyed the aesthetics of the film but it felt pretty hollow to me. He articulated himself well here so it’s weird to see so many people salty because someone didn’t like a movie they liked.

In a single word? No. Just one 41 year old guys opinion. Enjoyed the review yall, thanks!

Plankton farts and it makes a Tornado. 😂 I thought this one was much better than the 1996 one and watched them basically back to back. Surprisingly 4 out of 5 for me.

Agreed, this movie was awesome, and the ending was bonkers!

I've only seen Stalker and Solaris... I feel like anyone who's only seen two Tarkovsky movies, has seen Stalker and Solaris. I actually think about Solaris more often.

Nice director!

I disagree in many respects, but I like the depth of your discussion.

The only part of Solaris I liked was the long driving scene. The shots of planets were cool. After they went to space it went way downhill for me.

My top three are 1. taxi driver 2.bringing out the dead 3.the king of comedy

I agree with Jake, the third act made things too resolved. Although I liked the movie a lot more overall the first 2 acts were great. Maika Monroe was great but the Cageness of Nic Cages performance bled through too many times and took me out of it in some scenes where he was just too over the top. The more subtle he played it the better it was, like the initial scene with the girl in the beginning that gets flashed back to multiple times, that was the best he was and in other parts I could only see Nic Cage being Nic Cage

The original does not hold up. Also probably the only bad Philip Seymour Hoffman performance.

I'm on team wife. Movie was awesome. Nick Cave's batshit crazy performance made the character more intriguing. How could such a lunatic be doing such intricate murders?

Another I issue I have with this film is that it just beats you over the head with soooo many long sex scenes. I'm not sure they needed like 40 solid minutes of actual sex scenes. Seemed like they just wanted to have a lot of naked Emma Stone in it.

finally i find somebody i agree with on this movie! thank you jake! i feel like im going crazy with how positive people are on this one!

I did it all in one night. 😅

Twisters, idiotic , stupid movie.

The most gripping and immersive movie since Top Gun: Maverick, and Glen Powell stars in both.

The Outsider perfectly sums it up, it’s a movie that feels grounded and presents problems that I was really excited to find the answers for but by the end it went supernatural and left me feel dissapointed. The first part and the style of the movie was banging though.

They agree! A new day

Pretty in keeping with most other reviews I’ve seen. “But did you see the cow?”

This review is perfect, everything you said , I couldn't have said it better myself.

Hated hated hated this as a huge fan of the original but since you haven't seen it I forgive you

Every single favorite was mine. Nice to have that validation. Thanks!

The movie wasn't very scary and that's exactly why I loved it. And I agree that it was really funny!

Is it just me or does it strangely feel like they just straight up took the plot of Godzilla Minus One and replaced Godzilla with a tornado?

I haven't seen the original but I LOVED this one. I went in expecting a fun 6-7/10 and walked out on a 8.5/10 high. It was constant emotional whiplash through the whole thing, one moment I'm gripping my seat terrified and the next I'm laughing. When the lady told her child "it's going to be okay" in the pool I was traumatized from the start of the movie, I was convinced someone was gonna die for sure

Lee isaac Chung sweep 📈📈📈

Y’all should absolutely watch the original Twister! Less pacing issues, more interesting characters, and all the same fun beats that work in the sequel.

That does sound very fusstrating :)

how much patreon money do you think the tornado youtube guys were making in this movie

Awesome review!

Twisters. The most anticipated movie of 1999!

Gotta say I absolutely loved this! I'm always a bit sad that we don't really get these classic feeling blockbusters anymore and it felt great to see something that captured that

I haven't rewatched the original Twister since, so I can't vouch for it, but I do remember really liking it a lot as a kid. Then again, I was at that age where if any movie doesn't lose your attention it's your new favorite thing for a week or so.

Excellent review

Rest in Peace, Bill Paxton and Philip Seymour Hoffman. If either were still alive, I'd have loved for them to have cameos here.

Glen Powell really stole the show, he was so charismatic, though Anthony Ramos was overshadowed as a result. I loved that they updated the story for a modern audience, while keeping some 90's nostalgic elements.

twister? i barely know her!

The level of entitlement that allows for production of this content without actual seeing all of Kubrick's work is astonishing.

James’ taste and my taste👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨

Well, damn. I'm pretty convinced Jake decided to go contrarian precisely because everyone was hyping up the movie, and him being hateful about the movie generates more reactions/views than him praising it. You can tell because he apparently found Skinamarink, the most boring, non-eventful movie in history of horror, super compelling, and Longlegs he found to be pretentious and artsy. Longlegs at least tried to have some semblance of a plot, something was happening, something was being said. Longlegs has a narrative. Skinamarink was devoid of anything meaningful beyond long shots, devoid of any actual narrative or story or characters. It's pretty disappointing that you opted for this route. Oh well.

i love to hate to love to hate to love it.

I enjoyed the movie

I wanted to love this film so bad but Jake's review is so accurate. It's not just like, regular bad, its...confounding

I think everything about this movie is good except for the story.

it had a few very effective unsettling moments, the first shot of cage was horrifying but overall the performance didn't work for me. it was over the top and could have used more subtlety and nuance in this kind of role. i agree with jake but my grade isn't as harsh. it was fine 6/10.

Do PTA! Great ranking, by the way. I have seen and have Stalker, The Sacrifice, and Zerkalo, I have seen Andrei Rublev and Solaris, and the others are yet to be seen!

Thought this one sucked lol. I was really hoping for a straight up classic detective and killer movie, but they always have to fuck it up. People who compare long legs to the silence of the lambs or seven have no idea what they’re talking about. Clarice starling was an incredible character no because she was a female fbi agent, because she was A BADASS with an incredibly compelling backstory. The main character in long legs was just a weak anxiety ridden bore the entire movie. I almost fell asleep in the theater towards the end. Nick cage is one of the GOATS and he was the only redeeming factor when it came to the acting in this movie. Cinematography and score were cool, otherwise it would have been unwatchable.
