If I could give this movie a minus score, that would be generous. This is an awful movie. Terrible plot, terrible acting, terrible writing and terrible graphics. It tries to be "Twister", but fails, miserably. And what is with Darryl Hannah's face? She has had so much plastic surgery or something, she doesn't even resemble the Darryl we all know and dislike. Maybe that's her goal, I don't know, but watching her was PAINFUL! The whole movie is painful to watch. I think it was also trying to be a "global warming" warning, but they even screwed that up. As they said themselves in the movie, "the ice age eventually melted, and man wasn't even around then". Exactly. Global warming my aunt Fanny. This was just a terrible terrible mess of a movie. I am mad at myself for losing two hours to this horrible movie.

The movie poster of Storm Seekers shows Daryl Hannah as an attractive young professional female. The movie itself though shows Hannah as a very unprofessional and utterly unattractive woman who has a psychological problem so profound that she compulsively puts the lives of her crew in danger. Now that could have been fine if the acting was good and the plot were worth the wile. It isn't. Nearly all the action takes place inside the cabin of a plane rigged as a flying meteorological laboratory. Every thirty or so seconds the director serves us with pale flashbacks to meetings between Hannah and her psychologist that are so incredibly boring because of the unbearable shallowness of the dialogs and the stupidity of the psychology which make it impossible to feel any sympathy. There are more flashbacks, to the time where Hannah was a child. And weird scenes with Hannah watching and holding white lily's that ignite spontaneously. I guess these scenes are there to give the movie a sense of intellectual and spiritual importance. They don't. Hannah has always been bad at acting and bad acting is what she does in this movie. But there were times when you could forget about that and just watch her sovereign beauty. She has lost all of her beauty unfortunately and so there's nothing left to watch. Here's a preview of what you may expect: the plane is falling from the sky while going in the eye of the storm. Hannah gives the pilot a serious advice: "You have to get the plane up, Henry". And this was one of the least stupid lines. This movie is an embarrassment to all intelligent beings. If you watch it, you'll not be just wasting your time, you'll be deeply offended.

There were a total of two upside items to this film.The first was that I got a good look at the 2009 Lexus Minivan.The second was that at some point during the dry heaves I got from watching this 1 hour and 24 minutes of visual Ipecac, the popcorn husk that had been stuck to one of my tonsils became dislodged and I was able to remove it. I suppose if you were a Huge fan of both Daryl Hannah and chubby chasing you might get some small pleasure from this horrible misuse of celluloid. I can only assume that this was made in a vain attempt by Mrs. Hannah to keep some semblance of her original beauty (let's face it, no one watched SPLASH to see her act) on screen.

This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen; from a horrendously written story line (borrows from 'Twister' a lot) to inane dialogs and substandard acting. The second half of the movie I fast forwarded a lot because I could no longer watch Darryl Hannah's therapy flashbacks. OK, we've learned at the very beginning of the movie that she lost her parents in a storm hence her current interest in hurricanes ('Twister' rip off) but to drag those flashbacks throughout the movie was nothing more than sadistic. Nothing new was learned about her as the main character nor was it related to the development of the storyline in any significant way. The scenes would flash from a plane in distress to the calmness of her therapist's office every few minutes, thus breaking the continuity in the story. There are no special effects to alleviate the pain of watching this. As the film progressed it also dived into banality after banality. I think that there should be a fine instituted for script writers, directors, and actors who churn this kind of garbage. say, abstain form making movies for a year?
