What to Know

Critics Consensus

Clumsily scripted and populated with forgettable characters, Into the Storm has little to offer beyond its admittedly thrilling special effects.

Most inexplicable, yet potent, are the shots that look down on the devastation from on high, implicitly reducing the entire cast to extras in a movie directed by God. Go to Full Review Geoffrey Macnab Independent (UK) 08/22/2014

Unfortunately, long before the storm has blown itself out, the plot has long since come apart. Go to Full Review Wesley Morris Grantland 08/21/2014
What we've got here is somewhere between Twister and one of those storm-chaser reality shows, except Jan de Bont made Twister. Go to Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies 08/22/2022
2.5/5
At a brisk 89 minutes “Into the Storm” doesn’t exhaust its welcome. It aims for one rather uninspired target and for the most part it hits it. Go to Full Review Dan Brightmore NME (New Musical Express) 05/26/2021
3/5
The use of practical effects, not just CGI and green screen trickery, recalls old school disaster movies from the 70s ... Go to Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse 02/01/2021

When the wind isn't tearing the town apart it's as if Quale doesn't know what to do with the characters or the story. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Kaylee L. @Kaylee_12711 Apr 9 The cgi was really good 👍 See more Mitch C @PrimetimeMitch Feb 9 The effects are sensational - this is not your cheap, corny low budget horrible cgi effort. It’s ranks with some of the best. Maybe not the most cutting edge story, and some of the characters aren’t that deep but if you want excellent storm and disaster action with people trying to survive then this is it. I enjoyed it - a lot of effort clearly went into the visuals and for that it deserves some appreciation See more Susie C @Catz72 Dec 1 A lot better than the critics say. Good fx See more Sinnamon T @RT20363615 04/22/2025 i actually loved watching this movie as a kid mainly because of the cgi and tornadoes SINCE I LOVE DRASTIC weather climate and changes but i never paid attention to the acting i wish i can rewatch it on streaming so i can write my rating for the acting but i overall enjoyed this movie so much ! See more Lewis D @RT56939621 12/29/2024 peak cinema, ive watched this at least 8 times See more Lucian T @RT80581596 09/18/2024 Not the best movie of course, but it's worth a watch if you like weather, drama ect, characters are ok, kinda forgettable. It has all the stuff you want, storm chasers, amateur storm chasers,, tornado interceptors, and pretty good special effects. And the story is pretty good, it has kind of emotional scenes at times. Only thing I dislike is that we didn't exactly get that much info on the titus, but they explain everything on the titus in one of the scenes so... a pretty good movie! See more Read all reviews
