'Twisters' swirls an old-fashioned rom-com into an effects-happy action movie
Briefly

Directed by Lee Isaac Chung, Twisters is not a sequel but follows the formula of embedding a romantic comedy within an effects-driven action movie. It focuses on love and loss amidst the lives of those who chase tornadoes.
The film features Kate Carter, a former storm chaser turned New York meteorologist, who is brought back to Oklahoma by her colleague Javi to join a team chasing tornadoes. She has a special talent for predicting tornado strikes.
In Oklahoma, the main rival storm chaser is Tyler Owens, a YouTube star who leads a rebellious crew. Despite initial friction, Kate and Tyler's shared passion for tornadoes hint at a romantic connection.
