TWISTERS Finally Gets Streaming Release

By Movieguide® Contributor

One of the summer’s biggest hits is coming to your home theater.

“Universal’s TWISTERS, the summer’s hit tornado action movie with Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones, will stream on Peacock beginning on Nov. 15,” Variety reported.

TWISTERS released in theaters on July 19 and had a “strong $80.5 million opening. It went on to make more than $370 million globally. TWISTERS was a particularly big hit in specialty theaters — like 4DX, where attendees are blasted by wind, rain and rocked back and forth in their seats.”

The storm thriller stars Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell and Anthony Ramos. A synopsis reads:

Daisy Edgar-Jones stars as Kate Cooper, a former storm chaser haunted by a devastating encounter with a tornado during her college years who now studies storm patterns on screens safely in New York City. She is lured back to the open plains by her friend, Javi (Golden Globe nominee Anthony Ramos, In the Heights) to test a groundbreaking new tracking system. There, she crosses paths with Tyler Owens (Glen Powell), the charming and reckless social-media superstar who thrives on posting his storm-chasing adventures with his raucous crew, the more dangerous the better. As storm season intensifies, terrifying phenomena never seen before are unleashed, and Kate, Tyler and their competing teams find themselves squarely in the paths of multiple storm systems converging over central Oklahoma in the fight of their lives.

Movieguide® praised its “very strong moral worldview with strong Christian, moral, redemptive content and values about helping people in distress and not taking advantage of them, doing the right thing, [and] sacrifice.”

TWISTERS is an outstanding adventure romance. It has appealing characters, powerful drama and funny moments with lots of heart. The music is wonderful. The storm scenes are intense, harrowing and exciting. TWISTERS has a strong moral, redemptive story about helping people, saving lives and making sacrifices. It also has a positive view of people living in the American heartland. However, TWISTERS has some foul language and scary moments. So, MOVIEGUIDE® advises caution for older children.
