Review of Geostorm (2017) by Tvjerry — 22 Oct 2017
People don't go see a movie like this for plot or character and that's a good thing, because this film is extremely weak on both counts. 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.
