The planetary disaster film equivalent of a two-hour call to tech support, Dean Devlin’s Geostorm boils down to that classically annoying hail-mary bit of advice: Have you tried shutting it down and rebooting?
But, is Geostorm truly the worst film of the year, especially with the (also) disastrously received The Snowman lurking in the shadows of cinema complexes everywhere?
Which is precisely what Geostorm may be doomed to become, roping in Independence Day’s producer Dean Devlin for a feature film debut that is predicted to flop hard at the box office.
Then again, the only thing more reliable than bad weather is bad movies, and in that respect, Geostorm is right on forecast.
