While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Elysium is a great story for the future and its disadvantages, well even unfairnesses. It shows a bit of realistic future world and what's going on there. There are many chances for more effort and adding more emotion.
I always say what more can a movie be. That's me!
I liked the idea, but I got angry, when I realised that the movie could've become more than what it was.The shape was always the same cursor. It had to be more feeling, which it could.Neverthless it was good movie.

What can I say? It's the same Hollywood recipe for all movies. Right?They always put the same ingredients in absolutely all of these movies. To try to even list these ingredients over and over in my reviews is moot, so I am just gonna skip it this time.If you pay attention, you'll notice!!On a side note, it started out good, but as soon as we reached mid-point, every Hollywood cliche was fulfilled.

Movie lacks protagonist, side characters, plot, logic... need more? My patience.

Movie Review: "Elysium" (2013)This action film has been shot in Summer 2011. The screenplay is a mess of a technological over-side proportions. Director Neill Blomkamp found an overwhelming success with "District 9" (2009) with the U.S. domestic audience on alien invasion restraint in an South African township. Here the director gets a production budget boost from 30 to 115 Million Dollars through producers Bill Block and Simon Kinberg. The resulting footage has been devastating. A major cast with leading Hollywood actors Matt Damon as the hard-working factory employee Max and Jodie Foster as the corporation over-looking ice lady nemesis, do not meet in the storyline, to find some empathic character identifying moments of revelation, instead Writer/Director Neill Blomkamp writes the character of Kruger, portrayed by Sharlto Copley as megalomaniac with the primitive states in language and actions, to lead to a concluding metal gear fist fight between Max & Kruger, which sounds amazing, even has some daring camera motion by technically-competent to creative-talented cinematographer Trent Opaloch with otherwise hand-held directed wasting coverage. Two years in a doomed pit of post-production to an August 9th 2013 release after a two-times push back of release date; enriched, enhanced, tweaked, twisted digitally to make some emotional impact in a world everyone already knows between earners and spenders to finish with a fairly decent editorial by Julian Clarke & Lee Smith, who do not linger to long in any scene in order to reveal the exploitation of talent in characters of no means as Julio & Frey.© 2017 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)
