Now,this isn't,like,another The Emoji Movie,but it's DEFINITELY not something i would spend my 10 bucks (or 20 bucks in IMAX) on. And,all honesty said here,i was actually excited for this movie,and now that i saw it,i can fairly say that 'Geostorm' is just another movie at the same level of the Transformers movies,where we wanted the action all over the flick,but we're just greeted with tons (and i mean TONS) of boring plot and subplot sequences. The story may be bland,sure,but it gets lazy and lazy throughout the movie and SPOILER ALERT (or not),the action sequences in the movie are the action sequences that fill the trailer to fool you once again into spending money,with the first action sequence (1 minute and 40-something seconds) of action dropping after 20 minutes of movie. I will only save the first minutes of the movie,since the beginning sequence is stylish with its story,and tells you about this somewhat interesting concept. During the story,expect some scenes that rip-off better movies,like Interstellar or Gravity (2013). Usually in a good or bad action movie,the special effects are something i always tend to save,but in here it SURE does lack the feel of an actual computer-effect. For example,there's a scene a-la San Andreas where a flood is taking over San Francisco and its Golden Gate bridge,but when it gets into the bridge,it's not being destroyed by the flood like if the bridge is an indestructible bridge. If 2012 (Roland Emmerich) scared the shoot out of me with its effects,i would laugh-out-loud with Geostorm's special effects. And what can i say about the acting? Well,let's say that Gerald Butler is just there because he needs a paycheck,as well as Ed Harris (?!?!?) and others. The music (by The LEGO Batman Movie's Lorne Balfe) can get...well,"iffy" at times,even if it's tolerable nontheless. In the end,Geostorm is just as great as an actual end of the world internet hoax. Don't expect some 2012 or Independence Day level of awesomness,because this movie is the opposite of what you'll expect. If you really want to watch a great Disaster movie,just watch the ones i mentioned,and don't spend your 10 dollars on this,please.… Expand

It's every big, dumb action and disaster movie trope you've ever seen, played out so shamelessly that they might as well have hosted "quote-a-long" screenings of the film upon release, complete with a little animated ball bouncing atop every recycled word, phrase and one-liner vomited out by the actors. What starts out boring, quickly descends into ridiculum, throwing quasi-scientific blather at your head with the expectation that you'll eat it up like someone who has no basic understanding of how space, physics, or weather works. It's real bad. Honestly not sure what I expected with this one, though.… Expand

1 point for the FX. The rest of the movie was baaad. The actors probably participated just for making their monthly rent and the director seemed equally bored. My big question is: Who wrote these dialogues ??

If the movie didn't took itself so seriously and had better casting it wouldn't had been that bad. However, that is not the case here. If you are into weather disaster porn then you might enjoy this.

But as the tagline so helpfully mentions “some things were never meant to beDue to the devastating effects of global warming the world has united to create a network of satellites and a super space station that controls the weather. But as the tagline so helpfully mentions “some things were never meant to be controlled.” We know where this is going, rogue satellites attacking the earth. Cue the extreme frost, tidal waves, tornadoes and a giant laser for some reason. Enter Gerard Butler. The best damn meteorologist in the world. With the super space station in danger only one man can prevent the looming Geostorm by rebooting it apparently. And that man is Gerard Butler. Hello Gerard, have you tried turning it off and on again?

Geostorm is exactly what is advertises only worse. All you’re expecting is something that’s so bad it’s good. That’s the only thing these kind of movies have going for them. I mean I’m not going to criticise the script, the acting and the plot, it’s not about that. It’s about entertainment value but Geostorm is a fail of epic proportions. You had one job and you couldn’t even do that right. So what is wrong with it? Well the lack of the actual Geostorm for one thing. All the catastrophic weather disasters are all featured in the trailer and the movie itself adds little else. Most of Geostorm is hacking, more hacking, arguing, hacking in space and a kidnapped President. We also get people outrunning tsunamis and extreme frost. All things you’ve seen before only better. So will it entertain you? No. A boring, eye-rolling waste of time. If you’re in the mood for an over the top disaster movie watch The Day After Tomorrow instead.… Expand

How does one decide the worst movie ever made? Is it bad acting? Is it a ridiculous story? Is it taking itself far too seriously too? There are some movies, like "The Room", which are so bad they are actually funny. The only think funnyHow does one decide the worst movie ever made? Is it bad acting? Is it a ridiculous story? Is it taking itself far too seriously too? There are some movies, like "The Room", which are so bad they are actually funny. The only think funny about "Geostorm" is that somebody thought this was a good idea and put a great deal of money into it. Think "Armageddon" with an environmental catastrophe theme and an evil megalomaniacal government takeover just to make it even more convoluted. Then mix in Gerard Butler, who is credible enough as a tough action guy, but let's make him a scientist, physicist, computer and aerospace genius. That'll be great. 12-15 year olds with no taste might like this movie. But this is utter drivel. It is two hours you cannot get back.… Expand

Geostorm is no other than your low-quality disaster movie with minimal to no effort being made in the process. You just have to sometimes wonder who even thought this was a great idea to show to people.

Most of the big disaster sequences are fully on view in the trailer. So what does that leave? Lots of intrigue on the space station and conspiracy back on earth. The plot is set in the near future, when our planet has been saved from repeated weather catastrophes by a massive satellite structure. When things start to go wrong, the scrappy engineer (Gerard Butler) and his brother (Jim Sturgess) struggle to save the day. With trite situations and terrible dialogue nothing about the story is original or interesting. To make matters worse, the devastation scenes are a lackluster showoff of CGI effects.… Expand

In fact, there is stiff competition for the film's internal stupidity award. At first you think that the ludicrous "science" the movie seems to take seriously will run away with the win. But then you notice the atrocious "acting" and hammy dialog, and the race is back on. But to the astute viewer a dark horse should appear at some point in the appallingly inaccurate portrayal of American politics and the kind of swine who are now the only ones who could possibly become American presidents. If we're lucky he's a mindless party hack. If not, a crazed ideologue bent on world war. But, lo and behold and extreme sphincter contracting shock, the president is a hero in Geostorm. Who would have thunk it? Hollywood never does that angle to death, right? But this is not all, lest you are still not convinced. Cars explode as if they are not just loaded with explosives but actually built from them. Pompous music blares loudly over everything, because otherwise us poor peasants wouldn't know how to feel about things, there is a tacked on family intrigue as if people who build space stations and work in governments are real people instead of soulless sociopaths. There is even an unrealistic ninja woman, exactly like in The Matrix, except not good. And guns have unlimited ammunition. Hooray! And sprinkled on top are all the movie cliches in the world, from the main characters appear to die but are "surprisingly" hiding off camera to surprise the villain cliche to the blase banter that all Hollywood couples for some reason engage in, but which never actually happens in the real world cliche. And everything in between obviously: Door stops bullets cliche, the patriotic self sacrifice cliche, heroic president cliche as I mentioned, driving backwards while shooting a handgun at a pursuing vehicle cliche, speaking in code to fool the evildoers cliche, etc, etc ,etc. Trust me, it's jam packed with all the cliches you could possibly think of. I gave up counting due to extreme lack of interest at around 40. And they are not subtle either. They are completely over the top, with cue music for the dullards watching, as if things weren't already super obvious enough. GAAH!

I'm sorry, but I'm burned out now. There are just so many idiotic things about Geostorm that I have a headache from trying to remember all of them. And not only that, but it is more globalist propaganda, evidently aimed at the lowest common denominator, to put it politely. The people who made this movie, whose names I refuse to remember, and for that matter anyone who takes any part of it seriously in any way, should be shot out into space themselves as a matter of public sanitation. If anyone recommends that you watch this movie, quickly empty the nearest available beverage over their heads and never speak to them again.

Unlike a cheesy fun disaster movie like Armageddon or 2012, Geostorms serious tone doesn't suit the cheesy fun set pieces. Armageddon was fun with plenty of cheese but that felt right in that movie because it didn't take itself too seriously and had comedy elements. Geostorm is super serious in its delivery and would have been less rubbish if it had stayed grounded and intelligent like Deep Impact or Twister instead of going wild with the plot and over the top scenarios. The acting is alright just bland characters with dull dialogue. The parts that made me go from disliking this to hating it was the nonsense Science, the cringe action scenes and the stupid twist halfway through. The science in this movie doesn't make sense and logic is out the window. If you like science you will hate this film. The action is mindless and cringy. During the action you end up internally saying "Yeah right, like that would happen" because what you see is something ridiculous happening in a dead serious all be it bad movie. The twist of who done it and why that happens is so stupid and face palming bad, I laughed out loud. Worst big budget disaster movie to date, Sharknado of the big screen !… Expand
