Geostorm

In a near future where catastrophic natural disasters are threatening the planet, world leaders collaborate to create a network of satellites called 'Daedalus' to control the weather. When the system begins to malfunction, creating a storm of unprecedented scale and intensity, a disgraced satellite designer must race against time to fix the problem and prevent the Earth from descending into chaos.

Geostorm was widely panned by critics and audiences alike, being heavily criticized for its convoluted plot, weak character development, and reliance on special effects over substance. It was considered a commercial disappointment.

• Despite a potentially interesting premise, the film drowns in nonsensical plot developments and generic disaster movie tropes.

• The visual effects are plentiful but fail to compensate for a lack of coherent storytelling and engaging characters.

• Critics widely considered the film to be a predictable and ultimately disappointing spectacle.

Google audience: Audience reviews often mention that while the concept had potential, the execution was poor, with many finding the plot confusing and the action uninspired. Some acknowledged the visual spectacle but felt it wasn't enough to salvage the film.

Nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Special Effects.

The film was originally scheduled for a March 2016 release but was pushed back multiple times due to extensive reshoots.
