Review of Geostorm (2017) by Brendan N — 13 Oct 2018
Just another end of the world destruction film and sadly it's very dull. The issue is the lack of destruction and the point of the story. I get you are attempting to hold back the villain reveal but when the film lacks and real reason for being until you have the reveal.
This film could of been a hybrid genre film but there are pointless character moments that add nothing, why is a secret service agent helping the guy she has married over the President? Little things like this are really dumb and are there for the connection of the plot.
The film could have been smarter and allowed the plot to mean something, Butler seems to be the go to guy for these high concept films, he looks to be the only actor attempting to breath life into a lifeless film.
The finale is fun and offers the action we all wanted but it is too late, they needed a complete restructure and different filmmaker to save this film. 14/10/2018.
