Just another run of the mill disaster flick that prioritizes special effects over everything else. We've seen this a million times already.
The fact they put the film in mid-October says everything about how little confidence they have in the film.

It's definitely debuting in a crowded marketplace. Oct 13th sees Marshall (maybe starting off limited release?), Happy Death Day, and The Foreigner.
Oct 20th, the day it's going to be released, sees The Snowman, Madea Halloween (movies suck, but they usually find an audience), and The Killing of a Sacred Deer (probably a limited opening release but still).
The tone seemed night and day in the first two trailers. 1st trailer was so serious, second was much lighter.

Looks like garbage, but the kind of garbage that might be fun to watch once in theaters. I for one, i'd rather watch this one than Thor3

It looks like something that would have come out twenty years ago. Say, what's the budget on this anyway?

Nothing on this Earth could be as bad as the movie where an asteroid or something was going to hit a certain city but no one knew exactly when. (Excuse me? ??) I'm not kidding. Apparently, it was determined to hit that one city even if the asteroid had to go into orbit around the Earth for some hours to reach it. Everyone prepared for the one city to be hit without knowing when the asteroid would arrive. Everything else is smarter than this, so I don't mind weird disaster movies so much.

Response to the initial screening was lukewarm so WB released BVS Instead. Since then, Geostorm's release date has been changed 3 times with multiple reshoots. The last reshoots cost $15M.

I never heard of it but I like some of the disaster movies they have on the Syfy Channel and a few years ago we used to get two new disaster movies every week as part of Syfy's Mockbuster Movie Mayhem and they had a lot of stars from TV shows like Mackenzie Porter (Travellers), Misha Collins (Supernatural), Amy Jo Johnson (Felicity) and Greg Grunberg (Alias, Felicity) and then they had a huge marathon for New Year's Eve and played all disaster movies non stop 'cause it was 2012 and people thought the world was going to end.

See with movies like this, just release it already and let it bomb. It's just delaying the inevitable.

Sounds like a title to some run-of-the-mill video game.

They made a movie about a car discontinued decades ago? Seems an odd choice.

I forget the name of it, but we watched it while chuckling.
