Geostorm (Blu-ray) (BD)

I could not play this movie on my bluray player in the United States because this is the Canada or Region 2 version of the movie. Amazon needs to be better at providing region information for the blurays and dvds it sells. In the United States bluray players and dvd players are Region 1. I've seen the movie before it is a good movie.

liked it

It’s a good movie but not great.

You can have a geostorm by computer or by car.Some day in the not so distant future cars and gasoline will cause the same thing to happen. The beginning of the movie hints at the real world.

I really LOVE Geostorm as it shows what we humans can do if we work together and yet there are others who only want things for themselves. I highly recommend this seller to anyone!

ORIGINAL REVIEW:This movie gets two stars instead of one, only because the special effects seem reasonably competent. The acting wasn't really a problem. The production values are fine. The special effects are fine. But this movie is just so badly written; such complete schlock and so over-the-top sappy that it distracts from anything good that happened in its production. It steals from other sappy movies (Independence Day, 2012, et al) to such an extent that it is almost a parody. In fact, it would have been a much better movie if they had made it a parody (like Mars Attacks). But it was clearly not intended to be that, which just made it a parody of itself. Any conformity to actual scientific principals are virtually non-existent/completely accidental. As far as science goes, the writers/producers were clearly of the mindset, "Science!? We don't need no stinking science!" Even the special effects are flawed in that they are clearly just randomly sprinkled in. It seems like the whole movie consisted of a bunch of special effects exercises with a McStory (TM) built around it to show off those special effects snippets. A quick google search tells me that this movie had a budget of around 120 million dollars. With that much money, they should have been able to tell a much more coherent story. The sad thing is, this movie gives a bad name to an entire sci-fi sub-genre - disaster movies. We may not see another big budget disaster film for many years because of the producers of this film, and for that, I despise them.UPDATE 1:I had to give this one a second look because I thought I might have been a little too harsh after the first viewing (during which I may or may not have dozed off momentarily). Okay, it's not as bad as two stars. The sappiness is still there, but the story line does actually hold together reasonably well for a disaster sci-fi movie. But the acting of most of the supporting characters was just awful: Jake's "team" on the space station and the computer nerd that Max recruits to help him, all act like idiots as characters (bad direction), and just act poorly as actors (bad acting school?) The main characters, including Jake's daughter (super sappy/wishful thinking narration notwithstanding) actually displayed pretty decent acting skills. As for my complaints about the science, that still stands... sorry, but if I see one more space shuttle fly around in space like a fighter jet, I'm gonna hurl! I'm okay with suspension of disbelief, but that doesn't include abandoning the basics of aeronautic science. I was willing to let it slide in Armageddon, but I would hope we've all grown up a little bit since then.UPDATE 2:I hate it when I'm wrong, but I'll admit it... I was wr-wr-wr-wr... wr-wr-wr... wr-wrong. And Robert (see comment below) is right. I still stand by my criticism of some of the supporting acting, and it's still a bit cheesy, but I'll be darned if I don't have to boot this one up AGAIN to four stars. One pretty good thing about it is that it stands up well to repeated viewings. The story line don't stink that bad and the main actors are all pretty top notch (as you would expect from the all-star cast.) I give it my recommendation.... Yes, you have my permission, and I won't think less of you, to buy this movie. (I know you were waiting for that.)

Takes the seeding we already do and takes it to another level. Exaggerated consequences of what could happen if humans control weather for own personal political gain

9/10 easy, it’s like Sharknado IV and V mixed together without the sharksThis movie is complete nonsense but somehow manages to be hilariously entertaining nonsense. The science? Horrible. The male characters? Bland. The female characters? Gaslight gatekeep girlbosses all of them.The effects and music are like top level Hollywood budget and the acting was very excellent, the fact that the plot makes NO SENSE WHATSOEVER makes that absolutely hysterical. Our one complaint about the CGI is that they bothered to take out Rio and didn’t even bother with a classic natural disaster movie shot of Christ the Redeemer going down :/There was a distinct lack of sharks in this movie for the amount of different tornados we saw. However, the plot of the senator planning to take out the entire line of succession to the presidency in order to become president, during what was apparently an election year meaning he’d be in office for like six months max, is the single funniest option they could possibly have gone for under the set up.WAIT NO the single interesting/fun male character was the president he wasn’t there for much but “Marry her” was VERY good. Also the dude at the start talking about zapping all the weather.Shoutout to the Dutch Boy/ISS system for having A. a self-destruct feature on the ISS??? and GUNS on the ISS???? and B. /A GIANT LASER OVER RUSSIA!?/And all 17 countries became friends the end :’)

If you want a wild 3d ride , then this will do it for you. It was on the big screen very impressive. I am firmly of the belief that reviews of 3d films watched in 2d are not credible to a degree and same goes with films not seen at the big screen. We can voice our opinion but unless you saw this forty feet high in 3d . then it's underwhelming . On that scale it was very impressive effects wise. With lots of great space shots and 3d imagery. On this blu ray scale it's more of a popcorn flick that you will like. so to give it a one star because you didn't take the time to see it in 3d at the theater seems at best spurious. But on your tiny screen you will still be entertained.

I wasn't expecting Oscar performances here which helped the viewing but even then, it's not a great film. The only reason I finished it is because there a precious few 3D films around so once you've committed, it seems a waste to not finish the film. Its ok but I was disappointed with the 3D special effects, again, ok but not great.

Saw this film on sky and really enjoyed. When found on amazon in 3d bluray for the price it was selling for had to get it. Even more amazing in 3d.

I purchased this blu-ray to add to my blu-ray 3d collection. For a film that was not shot with 3d cameras but converted the 3d was very good. not as good a conversion as Titanic or Jurassic Park but quite acceptable. Ed Harris and Andy Garcia were very good as usual and overall thought for this type of movie it was very well acted. Nice special effects and an interesting science fiction plot. A pleasant way to spend an hour and 45 minutes.

I have had it delivered
