Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

qcgirlqc I love disaster movies and this one is just that, a DISASTER! To be honest, its not all that bad if you're into b-rated movies. In this one the disasters i.e. tornadoes are really an afterthought. Its more about the drama. In summary, this liberal leaning movie is more about free spirited, high attitude kids and chics with no emotional control. Basically its a bad attempt as a drama cloaked in climate change. Watch it to kill time and to tick this one off of your apocalyptic movies list. Who knows, if you're into that type of stuff, you just may enjoy it.

girnun_101-732-494890 I liked "Storm Cell" a lot, it was emotional and i was glued to my TV while watching. Other movies of its genre have terrible and unrealistic effects, and besides the occasional unrealistic effects in this movie, it seemed real. Yet, its not always about the effects, and how good they are, because the acting in this movie was superb. A lot of emotions were shown and castes out well. I liked the beginning of the movie, it gave the movie a good opening. I felt that the cast were very suitable with their characters, Mimi Rogers did a great job as the mother, she was very understandable, but also gave the movie a good backbone. There was a specific type of mood in this movie, it was a very dull mood, but it was thrilling too, because you cant stop watching. There are some good syfy movies out there, but this one had the best acting out of all that i have seen in them. I recommend it to any 'end of the world' movie addicts, fans of Mimi Rogers, but mostly those who want to watch a nice action/drama!

BMovieMogul This one hurt. And I'm usually a sucker for really bad Twister ripoffs made for cable. We've seen this plot before, twice. Estranged parent-child relationship, because said parent is too devoted to chasing that big storm. Parent is obsessed with storms because of a tragedy in their childhood. Parent predicts The Big One will hit right where estranged child lives. Child doesn't believe them. Child has has several tense emo moments with parent. Big tornado predictably hits, key characters survive, and everyone is happy. See "Devil Winds" and "Tornado Warning" for this by -the-numbers plot as well. Amusingly, they use global warming for an excuse to "move" Tornado Alley to the pacific northwest so they could shoot cheaply in Vancouver. As expected, the tornado effects are lackluster. The CGI crew just rendered the same tornado for every scene. I think what really got to me was the darkness of the movie. By that I do not mean a grim undertone to the story... but rather how literally dark the image was throughout. I spent a lot of time straining to make out various details like character faces and locales. The environment around a tornado can be very dark, but this was done throughout the movie. I can only recommend this to people who didn't think it could get any worse than Atomic Twister.

Kevin_J The premise of this show is completely unrealistic. And it rips off other movies, such as "Twister" and really bad shows like "Night of the Twisters." Mimi Rogers basically plays the same character Helen Hunt played in "Twister"; someone who experienced a family death during a tornado when she was younger. Now she's obsessed with storms. But she has to prove "the big one" is coming.Plus, the science is in no way based on fact. Tornado Alley CAN NOT "move" to Seattle. Where were the fact checkers for this show? But what should one expect - it IS "Lifetime" channel.So watch something better. Like an old-fashioned test pattern.
