So is this movie worth watching?


Just wondering, if you enjoyed stuff like The Day After Tomorrow, Deep Impact, Armagedon, etc. Is the movie worth a watch? Or it is so bad that it is best to avoid it?

I watched this on a flight and it helped to pass the time, otherwise I would say no. the movies you listed are a lot better quality.

reply

Only if you're feeling snarky. It's a terrible movie.

Not so bad it's good, not an unintentional comedy, but bad enough to border on ridiculous. You might get a few sniggers out of it.

I DONT GET THE HATE...GEOSTORM ISNT ESPECIALLY SMART OR EXCEPTIONAL...ITS A LOT OF FUN THOUGH...I LIKE IT.

How is the destruction? Is there lots of it like in 2012?

reply

2012 IS A GOOD COMPARISON...VERY SIMILAR VIBE AND STYLE....PLUS GERARD BUTLER SLOBBERING ALL OVER EVERYTHING...ITS GREAT.

If you don't take it seriously it is a fun watch. When you start to take it apart is when you think: What were they doing?

Quite a bit. No Yellowstone exploding though!

Guess I'll check it out then.

How'd it go?

Meh

You can't ask this question about any movie that has Gerard Butler (or Jim Sturgess) in it.

That aside, yes, it's entertaining and certainly worth a watch. Not flawless, but fun enough to make it worth your while.

I saw this already but Greenland also with Butler was superior.

reply

Yeah, I read your reply to the other post after I made my post, but let it stay for the GB endorsement haha.

And I agree, I too liked Greenland more. It was intense and different from the usual apocalypse movies with big budgets.

I have to admit it's bad, I mean really, really bad. Talk about a movie that's made for a dumbed down audience, this is it!
