Into the Storm

There is no calm before the storm


Into the Storm
Hollywood's latest destruction extravaganza is something of a disaster-movie-meets-who-dies-next deathfest. In the span of a single day, the town of Silverton is ravaged by an unprecedented onslaught of tornadoes. The entire town is at the mercy of the erratic and deadly cyclones, even as storm trackers predict the worst is yet to come. Most people seek shelter, while others run towards the vortex, testing how far a storm chaser will go for that once-in-a-lifetime shot.

Stephen Farber quote iconMindless thrills from real-life tragedy

ReelViews
James Berardinelli quote iconMost importantly, however, the destruction and carnage is presented with verve and flair, making this a fine example of tornado porn. The twisters in this film don't take people over the rainbow. They smash, shred, and do other nasty things to them.
