Review of Geostorm (2017) by Compi24 — 21 Nov 2019
An honest-to-God chore to watch from start to finish, "Geostorm" is basically a modern SNL (because it's not even laugh-inducing) digital short/parody of a Roland Emmerich picture that hasn't come out yet.
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.
