Trivia
Some people have questioned whether or not a strong tornado could actually lift an aircraft like a 747 as depicted in the movie. Tornadoes have been known to pick up railroad engines before. An SD40-2 locomotive which is an average sized locomotive weighs 368,000 lbs. An empty 747-400 weighs 393,000 lbs, so there is not that great of a weight difference. Also, the wings would make the 747 more aerodynamic than the dead weight of a locomotive. So theoretically it would be possible for a 747 to be picked up by a strong tornado.

After the bus driven by Gary is cut off from the other escaping buses, by the falling power lines, Allison gets out to check on the people in the cars that went off the road. The two cars ahead of the bus appear to be empty. Allison runs to only one car and asks them to get into the bus, because their car is stuck in the mud. But there are already dozens of footprints in the mud by the bus' door before Allison even leaves the bus.

How this movie got a 6 rating is beyond me. Maybe people don't care much for the acting and storyline and settle down to a movie with good special effects.
Yes, the SE were great to watch and at times kept you on the edge of your seat but that is all. Weak in every aspect though the SE kept the movie on its feet.
There are 2 rednecks in the movie who were possibly put in there as comedy relief but they annoyed the hell out of me and then you have those stupid school kids who have lines which make them look like uneducated American teens.
I wanted to switch the movie off after the first 30 minutes as the acting and lines just didn't do it for me, but I thought to give it a go and as mentioned earlier, the effects were the only thing that kept me watching till the end.
.... and the ending made me curse a little.
Give me twister which was and still is a great movie whereas Into The Storm was nothing but a Hype into nothing.
