Reading the reviews of Into the Storm by some viewers, I braced myself for a bad movie with good effects. Wrong. The story is good, and the effects are amazing. You had almost 10 well-defined characters who change during the course of the movie, primarily the single dad with his two sons. The movie Twister had more blockbuster moments, but it was refreshing not to have to watch Helen Hunt (not my favorite.) Into the Storm had a hot chick (Alycia Debnam Carey) fall for the nerdy camera kid. She isn't Megan Fox, but she is definitely eye candy worth watching. They had two guys who belong in the Jackass movies chasing the twisters along with the professionals. They are hilarious. The stars of the movie, of course, are the twisters. They are better rendered that the original Twister movie. The movie has a good pace, with just the right amount of drama between the action scenes. I give the movie a 6, the effects an 8, so let's split the difference and give this one a 7.
