(Dean Devlin/2017/USA)
The name
anticipates epic, global disaster and would have you think this will
be a great afternoon’s popcorn munching, effects laden spectacle of
destruction, but it’s not. It makes the mistake of over investing
in the soap opera of the lives of the main players and pushes the
natural disasters to second fiddle. If I’m signing up for potential
global destruction as entertainment I want to see a lot more of the
disaster upfront and less of the emotional, angsty family drama
between two brothers. Geostorm was disappointing, although some of
the set piece disaster scenes are hilarious.
(2/5)
