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.

It plods along failing to muster even the slightest bit of energy.

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.

Sci fi post apocalittico che trova una nicchia di originalità narrativa in un genere oltremodo sfruttato ma che purtroppo, aggiunge davvero poco all'idea iniziale, se non una serie infinita di clichè del genere e non solo. La sceneggiatura è povera in quasi ogni suo aspetto, dalla scarsissima propensione a capire la situazione di emergenza dei migliori ingegneri al mondo, fino al più classico dei complotti per la distruzione del pianeta. A ciò si aggiungono una serie di personaggi poco interessanti e di dialoghi futili; inoltre la terribile capigliatura di Jim Sturgess è un pugno per la visione. Dimostrazione di come, specialmente in un genere molto di moda, l'alto budget non basti se mancano totalmente le idee alla base.

Too many times you are left thinking 'They would never do that!' or 'That is totally impossible!' All too stupid to even find this enjoyable.

Geostorm is playing right now, I just got so bored and angry that I figured writing this review might dull the pain. I thought this was going to be a disaster movie, not a speed run through boring exposition and smug, formless dialogue. I can't recommend it to anyone in good conscience, but if you absolutely have to watch it for some reason, do yourself a huge favor and skip the first hour and thirty minutes. Even then, temper your expectations.

Geostorm (2017) starts slow and ends even slower, it is a disaster film and an apocalypse that is happening in several places around the world bringing destruction and death. The CGI in this film is so bad that I can't even watch it through to the end. The only good thing about this immense mess is the well-stacked cast.

If you possess just a thread of intelligence you won't care too much for this disaster of a disaster film. I gave it 2 stars because the special effects were decent, and the acting was not that bad. It was the story writing that was just full of holes. You could get away with that kind of incoherent fiction back in the 1950's, 60's, 70's and 80's but not today.
