I wasn't expecting much from this film, to be honest. It was semi-predictable, it was a way to show off a heck of a lot of CGI, and I was able to conclude that it was The Day After Tomorrow but with more science than nature. However, it was entertaining. It's not film of the year material, but it was certainly something you can watch with your family.
It's a unique aspect on a topic that has been tackled multiple times over the years, and it's apparent that there's not much more you can add without repeating what has already been done, however, instead of constantly shoving that message in our faces with each scene, it starts developing a mystery, who sabotaged the satellites and making the weather on Earth go completely haywire.
The way this film is, I was expecting them to go down route one on who would be behind the whole operation to take down the satellites, but I was happy they didn't, however one particular aspect of the mystery, who was hired to plant the virus was immediately revealed by the not-so-subtle mannerisms of a certain character - he definitely stands apart from the rest.
I wouldn't be surprised if this fell off people's radars after a while, but I doubt it would be completely forgotten. Whilst I did find it entertaining and I probably would watch it again if I wanted to watch something to wind down with after a long day and I don't have to think too much to understand what's going on - I can grab my bowl of popcorn, sit on the sofa with my blanket around me and have a good night in by myself - that's where this film peaks.
