Extremely disappointed - it was actually not bad.


I like a good hate watch. It's what kept me on The Walking Dead through season 7. So when we had the great solar storm of 2024 (did you see the Aurora Borealis?) I saw this on Tubi for free with ads, I decided to give it a shot, thinking I'd have a lot of wonderful stupid to discuss on here.

While there is plenty of stupid to go around, the movie overall is not bad and I found it enjoyable to watch.

The one trailer I did see beforehand was actually the worst scene of the whole movie - the running flip flop girl on the beach.

If you removed that scene and a couple of others, it's not really that bad.

Of course, you have to suspend disbelief for the premise - weather controlling satellites - and be open to common movie tropes, but if you can accept that, then it fits together.

I did enjoy the reconciliation arc of the brothers. I found it touching.
