Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring

RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

sara-nieithir Not only does nothing happen, nothing even almost happens. Theres a big tornado, everybody gets informed in time and no body dies. Some pretty funny bad acting though.

Marshal Phipps This is not bad for a TV movie, the special effects and acting overall are pretty good compared to other tornado TV movies, this film is up there with Night of the Twisters since it keeps you glued to the screen wandering about what's about to happen next.If there are two things that stood out in this film is the use of unused footage from Twister (which I've found very interesting) and the ridiculousness of putting a disease containment facility in Tornado Alley. I also have to ask the question of why the producers used similar looking tornadoes in each sequence, did they run out of budget or was there a tight deadline? I found the similar tornadoes to be distracting.In retrospect, this film is good and does have some re-watch value.

Leofwine_draca DEVIL WINDS is the latest in a string of TV disaster movies I've seen. This one's quite obviously a spin on TWISTER, except of course it's nowhere near as good as that (average in itself) production. It's a film packed with grotty soap opera and boring dialogue and not nearly enough disaster.I knew this was going to be poor when I saw the attempted acting of the mother in the opening scene, which is laughable to say the least. It gets worse from there. The male lead is invariably wooden, the female lead an ageing has-been who was once on BAYWATCH, and the family drama type stuff is intensely grating.Scenes involving actual tornadoes are limited to the beginning, middle and end. There's a funny scene of a twister chasing a jeep, and later on a bit where a twister destroys a building. With nobody inside it, who cares? The CGI effects are pitiful, and looked like something out of THE SIMS at one point.No real reason to bother with this one, even genre aficionados will be sorely pressed to find something of merit.

ponyiq It is a made for TV movie, in the genre that has been overdone to some extent. It does have some interesting moments, like the ride in the Hurricane Hunter. It is not a bad movie and certainly better than some of the late night, or early morning fair.I have certainly seen much worse. The actors made the best of the script given and yes, some of the footage would be better using older stock footage, buts lets all remember that this is a lower budget made for TV movie and is certainly not a waste of time. It is not a movie I would buy a copy of, but certainly better than a lot of what is out there.It has some interesting twist, no pun intended where it certainly diverges from Twister and Night of the Twisters.
