'Minari' director Lee Isaac Chung pivots to an enormous canvas, demonstrating a flare for Hollywood action and believable banter between charming stars.
Tornadoes have been a subject of film fascination at least since “The Wizard of Oz” in 1939, but Dutch cameraman-turned-director Jan de Bont helped to solidify the appeal of the cinematic cyclone with his 1996 summer blockbuster “Twister,” about a group of adrenaline-junkie storm chasers.
When they head to Oklahoma to measure storms during a tornado outbreak, the pair run into a crowd of amateur stormchasers and a swaggering social media star, Tyler , a self-proclaimed “tornado wrangler,” who performs stunts like driving his fortified truck directly into a tornado in order to shoot fireworks up the funnel while livestreaming to his followers.
