Super Cyclone (2012)

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

I only stumbled across this movie while channel hopping with a coffee. This is a terrible film, even if it was a "made for TV" special.The acting is simply awful. It's like watching a bunch of Star Trek fans who have filmed their own episode! Every line is delivered with exaggerated breathless earnestness. It becomes painfully obvious that you're watching a low budget production.The cheesy script and cheesy acting is, at least matched by the cheesy CGI. Digital rain overlaid onto the scene of a bone dry van driving down a bone dry road. Very fake looking clouds, lightning and so on.If this film was a pizza, it'd be a quattro formaggi.On the plus side, if you're in the right frame of mind, it's so bad that it's almost laughably enjoyable! :)

The writing was amateurish. That's assuming it was written ahead of time and not pieced together on the fly. The special effects were less than "special". In fact they were worst than a high school play (Why in such a bad storm is the sun always shining?). Casting was an embarrassment. The actors should be ashamed of themselves, especially Ming Na who is capable of much, much more. As for Nicholas Turturro...how they casted this part was a complete mystery. The Global Asylum is known for low budget films. This must have been one of the lowest. This movie is so bad, as to appear planned. And that's where I have to disagree with "ipiercexpo", but only on one point. This movie somehow also failed to be as bad as "Plan 9 From Outer Space".

Seriously, how does The Asylum make money off this kind of garbage? It is a level of terrible that I can barely comprehend. Do they have a meeting with all the actors and direct them to be as horrible as possible? Never mind the atrocious plot line, cartoonish special effects, and total lack of anything approaching continuity. I had to back up just to confirm that I really had seen them showing a "radar" image of the supposed super cyclone crossing southern Florida despite the fact that it's repeatedly stated that this event is happening on the WEST coast. I get that there's some comedic value in horrible movies. We certainly laughed more than once at this piece of junk. But there's cheesy good and there's just plain bad. This was worse than bad. These "actors" should be truly ashamed to have their names listed in the credits of this "film." The writer and director should get out of the movie business, and The Asylum should make about one twentieth of the movies they're making now. Maybe then they'd be able to save up enough money to have a budget slightly larger than the one enjoyed by high school film makers.

Please make it stop... So bad... So stupid... Can't... process... the badness... Noooooooo!I wish the 10 lines requirement was not in place because this movie is so bad that 10 lines are completely unnecessary. I would have to pad this with a lot of redundant adjectives. Any further commentary would suggest a level of depth that simply is not there. I figure a 12 year old with a video camera could come up with a movie half as good as this. That's right, this movie is on par with what a 12 year old could come up with. And not even a talented 12 year old. Should be required viewing in film schools on how NOT to make a movie. Yes really, that bad. 10 lines yet?
