Ice Twisters (2009)

A lot of fun.

A different way of telling a story

There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

For what Ice Twisters is worth, it's not bad, this is one of the better Syfy tornado films. While the plot does remind you of Storm Chasers: Revenge of the Twister (if you've seen it) this film focuses on the characters working together to resolve a major issue rather than a personal struggle around a tragedy.The CGI is a noteworthy improvement (given the standards of Syfy) and the steady pacing keeps you watching. I can't say too much about character development since I was more focused on the plot and action.Ice Twisters is a good B movie, in the end I felt satisfied since I didn't feel bored at any point while watching the movie.

I realize that certain things in Science Fiction have no basis in reality. I also realize that Syfy uses the small budget that they have to at least make these films somewhat funny, when they know they aren't very good. What I don't understand is why bother making the film at all, when it is this bad? The special effects are a complete joke, the acting was just plain bad, and as for the story...it was a neat concept until they started doing things that were just completely stupid. I can't decide what was stupider, so maybe you can... Driving through a tornado if you do it at the correct angel, a storm cell that chases the scientists that created it, and of course the Sci-Fi author who solves problems, government scientists can't, using just his stories. This movie is ridiculous Canadian garbage and whoever wrote it deserves to be blacklisted!

*Spoiler* I picked this movie up from my local library. Having never heard anything about it and really only getting it because the cover looked interesting and no other movies grabbed my attention at that time I was pleasantly surprised with what I saw. Some of the graphics could have been better yes but still a good movie as disaster movies go. I came to like the main character Charlie and was saddened a bit when he found his assistant dead. It pulled me in, gained my interest, and made me enjoy the entire move. What I was expecting from this movie was some home grown movie off of syfi channel that not only looked bad but was completely uninteresting to watch. This movie is not any of that and don't just take my word for it, watch it yourself.

Worth A Watch!! This film does not fail to deliver, with action from the word go. I watched and was gripped the whole way through. Wondering what was going to happen next. Yes some parts were predictable, but in today's film industry, what film isn't? I will watch this film again and again, there are some great one-liners. I think this is a film that you need to watch to make your own decision as it will probably not appeal to everybody. The effects in the film were fantastic and allow you to really get a feel for what is going on in the movie, without potentially over-dramatising the action. The actors done a great job of portraying the events at hand and kept the movie believable throughout. Personally I loved this film and would recommend it to anyone.
