One friend said she watched it every single time she happened upon it on cable. Another said he engaged in an annual viewing. A third said it's her comfort movie when she's sick or hung over. Each was eager to extol the merits of the film: its all-killer-no-filler action, its special effects, its talented secondary cast.
I rewatched Twister and was surprised by how much I loved it, how content I was to witness a terrifying series of disasters and still walk away with the warm feeling I'd just watched a movie with a lot of heart.
As Janet Maslin wrote in The Times when the movie came out, 'Somehow Twister' stays as uptempo and exuberant as a roller-coaster ride, neatly avoiding the idea of real danger.
