Look, I'm not going to sugarcoat this: Geostorm is bad. Like, really bad. 18% on Rotten Tomatoes, 21 on Metacritic, 2.1 out of 5 on Letterboxd—these aren't flukes. This is a disaster movie that's a disaster in every sense of the word.
The premise—satellites gone rogue attacking Earth—could have been fun in the right hands. Instead, we get wooden acting, nonsensical science, predictable plot beats, and CGI destruction that somehow manages to be both overwhelming and boring. It's the kind of movie where things explode constantly but you stop caring after 20 minutes.
From a WISE perspective, it's technically safe for teens (no gore, sex, or truly shocking content), but it offers almost nothing enriching or imaginative. The 'science' is laughable, the characters are cardboard, and even the action sequences feel paint-by-numbers.
If your teen really wants to watch a disaster movie, show them The Day After Tomorrow or even 2012—at least those commit to their ridiculousness with some style. Geostorm is just... there. Forgettable, pointless, and not even entertainingly bad enough to mock. Skip it.
