Brief Summary - In the not to distant future the majority of Earth's indigent population is exiled on its polluted surface. Hovering nearby in orbit is Elysium, a plush retreat in space for the filthy rich until a series of uncanny events leads Matt Damon (Max Da Costa) to disrupt the hierarchical system.
Rating - On a scale of 1 to 10 Elysium is easily worthy of an 7.5
Movie Strengths - Explosive scenes that would make Michael Bay proud, robot hunts, car chase/crashes, failed abductions, sniper missions and much much more ...Sharlto Copley (Kruger) is a memorable villain almost as sinister as Heath Ledger (Joker).
Movie Weaknesses - Certain scenes were too lengthy and at times the vibe is too serious and emotional.
Final Thoughts - Overall this film has a solid plot, strong sci-fi themed motifs, gun/bomb and knife action...your inner action junkie won't be disappointed!
yeah yuh right about Elysium but we really jus went to see another Jason Bourne type of performance
