This summer's movie season was a rollercoaster; filled with some unexpected hits and even more surprising flops.

Fans have started to rediscover the film, leading to a spike in discussions and viewership. The classic storm-chasing story may not have been the box office giant everyone anticipated, yet its charm is making waves online.

It’s a delightful reminder that box office numbers don't always reflect a film's true worth or the audience's love for it.
