When the network of satellites designed to control the global climate starts to attack Earth, it's a race against the clock for its creator to uncover the real threat before a worldwide Geostorm wipes out everything and everyone.
When catastrophic climate change endangers Earth's very survival, world governments unite and create the Dutch Boy Program: a world wide net of satellites, surrounding the planet, that are armed with geoengineering technologies designed to stave off the natural disasters. After successfully protecting the planet for three years, something is starting to go wrong. Two estranged brothers are tasked with solving the program's malfunction before a world wide Geostorm can engulf the planet.
When Jake Lawson arrives on the ISS, he mentions that he and his brother Max were born in the UK but lived in the US. In real life, Gerard Butler is Scottish and Jim Sturgess is English. See more »

When the underground pipes are melting, the temperature outside the car is 135 Fahrenheit. Iron melts at 2,800 Fahrenheit.

All I can say is... WOW. I truly Hope Gerard Butler, Andy garcia, and Ed Harris were able to buy their additional vacation houses or pay off IRS with this CGI poopfest!!
