Summary: Above Average
Comment: Pretty good screenplay to a pretty good movie. Interesting fact: this isn't the final version of the screenplay that was used in the movie. In fact, there are a lot of differences. But simply put: if you like Crichton's novels you will like this one, as it features more of his trademark realistic science and suspense. However, the plot is somewhat cliche, and the ending is pretty weak, and that's why I give it 4 stars.
Rating: 4
Summary: THE ORIGINAL
Comment: Imagine a cyclone of dirt, stone, and just about anythingthat's nailed down is ripping through the road right in front of yourcar.
That's exactly what Michael Crichton and wife, Anne-Marie Martin, imagined when they wrote this screenplay called TWISTER.
An exciting story about two competing teams of scientists who try to place a special sensor pack into a tornado during a day of endless twisters.
The story is pretty much set aside in favor of exciting action sequences and a humorous romance between the two main characters. But it's still quite a bit of fun.
This is the couple's original draft of the script, made interesting because of it's numerous differences from the final film. The main plot is almost exactly the same, but dialogue, supporting characters, and a great many smaller details will be new to readers who enjoyed the movie.
The book also features an informative intro by Crichton detailing the conception and writting of the script.
So, whether you're a fan of the movie or a fan of Crichton, I'd definately have to give this book a strong recomendation.
And be sure to look out for that cow.
Rating: 2
Summary: DON'T DO THE TWIST
Comment: Twister is a bad movie with a horrible horrible plot that adds up to nothing. It's about a couple of tornado chasers that fall in love. Ever so dumb plot. The only thing that makes me give this movie two whole stars is the special effects (although the movie deserves only one). Special effects are great in this movie. If your a no plot special effects freak (buff), then you would love this horrible movie Twister. Rated PG-13: for language, and scenes of tornado damage
