The script for 'Twister', in which the now famous Joss Whedon got his hands on. Michael Crichton and Anne-Marie Martin wrote a script in which the forces of nature, in this case the tornadoes, acted as an allegory for the personal relationship between the two protagonists, very effective Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt, a year before winning her Oscar for 'As Good As It Gets' (James L Brooks, 1997) and who curiously are experts in tornadoes, adventurers who spend their lives analyzing the interior of these beasts of nature in order to determine the origins of them and to be able to foresee the moment in which they will appear.

It is true that we are facing a full-fledged blockbuster. A production by the always intelligent Steven Spielberg destined to break the box office. It doesn't fool anyone, but nevertheless, being aware of its limitations and what it is, I think 'Twister' plays its cards honestly. There are exaggerations, of course, and manual argument excuses. There we have the typical childhood trauma, in this case suffered by the character of Jo (Hunt) who as a child saw her father taken from her by a tornado; or that final part in which the leading couple should have gone to the other neighborhood but they save their skins because love must triumph even though to do so they must go through the cathartic situation of finding themselves in the very center of a tornado.

But what the heck, the film is entertaining thanks to a frantic pace that gives the viewer no rest, and we only see people running from one place to another in search of tornadoes. Jan de Bont directs in a masterful way, as rarely in his career. The director counts on photography and editing with the prestigious names of Jack N. Green, a regular collaborator of Clint Eastwood for many years, and Michael Kahn, whom Spielberg knows very well, which is no coincidence. Jack N. Green subtly darkens the tones of the film, in keeping with what is to come, and the editing is simply and plainly a lesson, holding the shots for the right moment without the action seeming rushed at any time.

But the spheres don't seem to work very well. They spread out across the road and stay there, until Jo takes a second look at the wind sculptures created by her Aunt Meg (Lois Smith) and realizes that each sphere needs a little wing. Then follows one of the unforgettable lines from the movie: “I need every aluminum can you can find! And duct tape! Well, wouldn't you know that every aluminum can you could find is a Pepsi can, although I don't understand why Pepsi thinks that disappearing into the Suction Zone qualifies as beneficial product placement?

"Twister", directed by Jan de Bont, is tireless cinema. with lots of energy. If the actors in this film want to act, they have to run to catch up with the camera, which is already rolling down a dirt road to see a tanker lift into the air, crash and explode. The movie is wall-to-wall with believable special effects, though I still can't quite explain how Bill and Jo escape serious injury while looking directly into the sucking area of ​​God's finger.
