Jan De Bont's special effects spectacular Twister comes to DVD in a package sure to please fans of F/X films. The transfer provides a clear widescreen anamorphic 2.35:1 image. English soundtracks are available in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1, while a French soundtrack is available in Dolby Digital 5.1. This disc will answer the burning question of whether or not flying cows moo differently in French. Subtitles are available in English, Spanish, and French. Extra features include a music video for Van Halen's "Humans Being," production notes, and the theatrical trailer. The best feature is the commentary track by the director and visual effects supervisor Stefan Fangmeier. Give the filmmakers credit for understanding what audiences find most interesting in this film and giving them a clearer understanding of the work involved in that aspect of the production.

Excellent, combining science, thrills and the pursuing of your goals a great film for our youth to see. There is excitment, commitment and purpose! Waiting, for Twister II. Also there is the good and evil aspect; there is always someone else out there to out do you, trying to steal or work off your ideas as if they were your friend, having a sense of integrity and doing what is right pays off in the end!
What's great about it: great overall movie at great price
