Critics Consensus

Lacking impressive visuals, well-written characters, or involving drama, Geostorm aims for epic disaster-movie spectacle but ends up simply being a disaster of a movie.

It is the kind of film in which having a British accent will get you punched in the face, but the fact that Gerald Butler talks like Sean Connery in that weird sequence from The Untouchables? Nobody cares.

The script, every scene of which you've seen 100 times already, ends with a sermon urging us to unite and salvage the future, though this rings hollow coming at the end of a $120 million exercise in sci-fi denial.

... the level of boredom I experienced during Geostorm ought to qualify as at least a second-degree felony in the state of New York.

For when the brain begs to watch the exact opposite of a brainy film: it's a fun popcorn movie that's also absurd and forgettable. Sometimes, we all need a Geostorm in our lives. [Full review in Spanish]

I'm generally okay with disaster movies being dumb, so long as they can construct entertaining action sequences with charismatic characters. Geostorm has none of those things.

Gerrard Butler always gets our vote, no matter how terrible the movie, tbh. They are always action packed and good clean and wholesome.

The film introduces moments that are supposed to be emotionally attaching to the viewer, but spends no time developing any bonds or stories between any of the characters. The whole thing was lacking and very rushed.

It's full of plot holes and cringey moments, but this was still an incredibly fun and intriguing movie, with amazing visuals and awesome action sequences. I definitely recommend this for action, sci-fi, and disaster movie fans!
