- Awesome Music: Brian Tyler's soundtrack for the film, but especially Aurora.
- Dull Surprise: Richard Armitage, an otherwise decent actor, completely phones it in for this one. Just watch his hilarious (non)reaction when he crashes his car after nearly driving into a tornado.
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Reevis and Donk. Sure, they're rednecks who are Too Dumb to Live, but they're also the only characters with any zest and personality.
- Just Here for Godzilla: For monster tornadoes, that is! Or for Richard Armitage or if you're a fan of iCarly, for Nathan Kress.
- Memetic Mutation: "Australian man attempts to walk to the store."Explanation
- Tear Jerker: The scene where Donnie and his girlfriend Kaitlyn nearly drown. Donnie, while knowing his family isn't there (yet), says some advice and thanks that he wishes they could hear. He says to not get onto his brother, as he knows he'll blame himself, and to his father that he's happy he had such a kind and loving parent.
- Took the Bad Film Seriously: While not explicitly a bad film, it is a mostly run-of-the-mill Disaster Movie whose Found Footage gimmick is the biggest thing that sets it apart from others. Despite this, Richard Armitage delivers a rather grounded and even moving performance as a single father trying to his best to care for his family and protect the rest of the public in the face of a severe weather emergency.
- Visual Effects of Awesome: The movie's characters may be so-so, but the scenes of tornado-induced carnage? YES!
