Kate Carter gives up storm chasing in Oklahoma after losing most of her team, including her boyfriend, in an EF5. She moves to New York and gets a job at the NOAA office. Five years later, the only other surviving member of her former team tracks her down. He is working for a mobile tornado radar company called Storm Par and he convinces Kate to join them for a week to investigate a tornado outbreak back in Oklahoma. On site, Kate finds out that storm chasing is now big business, as multiple groups are clashing.
As a standalone sequel to the 1996 film called Twister, Twisters clearly improves upon the original. The story is a lot more fleshed out, the acting is better, and the visuals are amazing. Some of the stuff is a little predictable, but, overall, I was greatly entertained. The story felt very actual, rooted in a reality we can all relate to.
