Geostorm is a science fiction movie revolving around a future in which the weather has become catastrophic. In this future, unprecedented weather is occurring and capable of destroying entire cities. Tsunamis are occurring in normally dry places, and beach towns are experiencing massive cold waves that freeze people instantly. Because of this, nations all across the world realize that they must put aside their differences in order to fight these problems as one. This eventually leads to seventeen countries uniting together and there being hundreds of scientists from many different countries working on a machine to control the weather through hundreds of satellites. The machine eventually works, using one thousand different satellites, and becomes known as the Dutch Boy. However, now something is going wrong. It seems like there are a few issues with the actual system, since places like Afghanistan and Hong Kong are essentially being destroyed through odd weather. In order to fix the system, one of the top men in charge calls back his brother who was the main mind behind the creation of the Dutch Boy and was also fired by his own brother, causing there to be some tension. If the brother fails to accomplish to fix the Dutch Boy with the help of other scientists, it seems like inevitable doom, because according to their computers, a potential Geostorm, which consists of extraordinary weather occurring all across the world simultaneously, will be responsible for eliminating cities all across the globe. 
 Geostorm proves to be a typical disaster movie in that the concept and visuals of the movie are great, but the actual plot and dialogue isn't. However, the beginning of the movie does a fairly solid job of introducing audiences to the futuristic world and all of the technological concepts being presented. The middle of the movie does a good job of progressing things along and presenting new, exciting obstacles forth as well as bringing more drama into the film. However, the ending of the movie falls up a little short. The conclusion of that movie really isn't that enticing or exhilarating, and the majority of it is more than just a little bit predictable. Up until this point though, there was a ton of drama and intensity that could have and should have been leading up to something better. Furthermore, the actual dialogue of the movie really isn't that great. Most of the interactions between the characters don't sound like the way people normally speak and feels unnatural. 
 With that in mind, Geostorm does have some highlights. The visuals of the movie are nothing short of being outstanding. The vivid visual effects of the movie are a major in factor in making all of the weather in the movie come to life even more and make it seem like the science that occurs could happen in real life. The spectacular special effects are essential to the outcome of the movie, and it isn't that outrageous for some to watch the movie solely for the way the weather is depicted. Secondly, the movie does have a good amount of thrilling twists and turns that help to make the movie substantially more interesting, because the movie certainly does need the help. 

 Although Geostorm seems to be capable of entertaining, critics seemed to hate the movie. Rotten Tomatoes gave the movie a horrific 14%, which is just as bad as it seems, and IMDb gave the movie a mediocre 5.3/10. However, luckily for the movie, not everybody felt so strongly. A strong 82% of Google users did like the movie, which is a good sign.

 Geostorm certainly isn't perfect, and although it is worth seeing for those who like interesting science fiction concepts and enjoy natural disaster movies that always seem to act as fun popcorn flicks, for those who aren't interested by those two concepts, this is one to let fly over.
