Gerard Butler may not be what you would call a star from the list these days, but he has actually appeared in solid stuff in recent years. The Scottish actor ‘The “plan” of the 90s was a breath of fresh air In 2023, Chris Evangelista of the film nicknamed the 2025s “Den of Thieves 2: Pantera” A “Triumph of Dudes Rock Cinema.” But none of this can erase the fact that Butler played in his just part of failures, although if it is a consolation for him, the subscribers of Netflix do not leave something annoying that the quality embarrassment of the streaming of his films.

In 2017, Butler played in “Geostorm”, which on its surface was a generic film in the event of a disaster offering very little time to attract the public. But in reality, it was even worse. The film was directed, co-written and co-produced by “Independence Day” and “Godzilla” (1998) the producer Dean Devlin, who, in your opinion, would be in his favor. Unfortunately, the beginnings of director of Devlin were not quite the delicious return of the 90s that “the plane” would prove.

The film features Butler in the role of Jake Lawson, a satellite designer who helps to design a network of satellites in order to control the climate and protect the land against natural disasters. Unfortunately, Lawson’s satellites are starting to dyster a dysfunction and attacking the planet, setting up a race against the chronometer while Lawson tries to understand what is happening in the Global Geo Storm does not devastate the earth. Jim Sturgess, Abbie Cornish, Ed Harris and Andy García, are also a star.

It looks like a ridiculous pleasure in the cinema, isn’t it? But that was not the case, and the criticisms were not very kind to “Geostorm”. Now, however, Netflix users give the film the stay that it almost certainly deserves, sending the film in the most watched film graphics and proving that our ultimate denigration will come from our own hand and not a global disaster.

Gerard Butler can make a hell of a good disaster film when he wants. His 2020 effort “Greenland” was a disaster film unlike any otherEven if there are several Disaster films like “Greenland” which are really worth it. Unfortunately, “Geostorm” is not part of it. For any reason, however, this did not prevent the Netflixers from distributing it seriously, sending butler failures in 2017 in the charts in the United States and surely bringing us closer to the fall of humanity.

“Geostorm” struck Netflix on April 1, 2025 and immediately entered the graphs the next day, according to the streaming tracker streaming Flixpatrol. The Dark Catastrophe Film made its debut in the list of American films at number four, which is a strong enough start for a film that The Hollywood Reporter Described as “big, stupid and boring”.

It is early for “Geostorm” on Netflix, but we could see it continue to climb the charts over the week. Meanwhile, the much better “Den of Thieves 2” of Butler is also in the Netflix ranking, but slipped four places at the issue of eight to April 2, 2025. At least, this opens the way to “Geostorm” to run for first place. The question is: should it be allowed to do it?

“Geostorm” has a score of 18% on Rotten tomatoesWith an average note of 3.4 out of 10. Even more disastrous than a global geo storm, the film collected only 5% RT partition among the so-called “best criticism”, which absolutely saved the film when it was released. To put this in perspective, only one of the 20 “best criticisms” included in the aggregation of RT thought in fact that “Geostorm” was good and even, the Tribune News Rick Bentley of service writes that “the director Dean Devlin and the co-series Paul Guyot … took a passable action film and buried him under a tsunami of political mud” (although he also declares that Butler “does work of the space station”) Alas, Bentley is a lonely voice in the middle of a decaying sea “Geostorm” as “

“Chaotically stupid”, “an hour and a half of dramatic monotony” and an “assault” on “the dignity of several beautiful actors”. It is only a handful of quotes from “Geostorm” criticisms, which if you plan to join Netflix Rewatch should help you decide between this or Keke Palmer and Sza’s unexpected at the box office, which is currently at number two on Netflix. Either that or you can taste the current number one, Netflix Original “The Life List”, which has a much better RT score of 47%. It is the state of play on Netflix at the moment, where a 47% is probably a better bet than one of the new hot arrivals on the graphics. As such, you would probably be better to head to Hulu, where not only Bob Dylan Biopic, Biopic Bob Dylan nominated for Timothée Chalamet’s Oscats, finding new fansYou can also see The best winner of the film “Anora” which recently took up the graphics.
