| Summary: | Powell is, by all public accounts, a nice, chill guy who travels with his tiny rescue dog and makes sure his parents can visit all his movie sets (and cameo in those movies). [...]at 35, Powell is attempting to become a kind of leading man Cruise would recognize, forging his path with roles in movies that feel like they belong in earlier decades: bubbly studio rom-coms, serious historical dramas, laid-back crime capers. The attraction in both Twister and Twisters is the state-of-the-art storms. (There’s no sex in Twisters — please, it’s a Hollywood blockbuster in 2024 — but there is a lot of talk about getting tornadoes moist.) It’s sort of the reverse trajectory of Hit Man: There, the nice guy learned how to be a cartoon. |
