I hate my local theater because they never participate in this stuff but they're still playing Twisters which has been available on VOD for weeks now.
Edit
For the record I'm not knocking the quality of Twisters. I thought it was a pretty good summer blockbuster. I'm more knocking the quality of my theaters programming choices, playing movies to empty rooms while never doing special events.
Man, that movie sucked so hard. It was extremely disappointing.
I really enjoyed it, saw it twice. was a classic summer blockbuster with good actors and the CGI for the storms was insane and really well done
It was significantly better than the original film at the very least. Both of them were stupid but at least the new one didn't make me hate the main character the whole time.
At least the original had groundbreaking VFX at the time.
The new one looks great but it's nothing new. I enjoyed it for the popcorn disaster movie it is and we can do much, much worst with those (looking a you Roland Emmerich you hack).
Honestly, if wasn't even good as a blockbuster disaster movie.
Lol .... with coming climate change, we won't need VFX ... we'll just tune into the local evening news in the future.
Everyone will get bored with make believe movies because real life will look so much more epically disastrous.
It's a good thing that they aren't trying to cash grab you
