In the future Earth is over populated and so polluted that the wealthy and powerful create a new place to live. It's called Elysium and it's just within Earth's orbit. and they have all sorts of conveniences among them is a machine can heal anyone. So people on Earth who want to use it try to get there. But the Secretary of Defense Delacourt uses unsanctioned operatives like a man named Kruger to keep them off Elysium. Her latest attempt to keep people off Alysium catches the ire of the President who tells her to tone down her attitude and to stop using men like Kruger. Delacourt then approaches Carlyle, the head of Armadyne Corp, the company that built Elysium and all of what they use up there and asks him to make a program that would allow her to remove the President and put someone else in his position. He agrees to do it. On Earth, Max a man who has dreamed of going to Elysium and taking Frey, a girl he grew up with there. Max works for Armadyne and while at work Max is exposed to radiation and has days to live and needs to go to Elysium to use the machine. So he approaches Spider the man who gets people to Elysium for a price. But since Max can't pay him, he makes Max a proposition, he will get him there if Max gets some information out of the head of Armadyne's head. Max agrees and is fitted with an exo-skeleton to help him. They intercept Carlyle as he was leaving for Elysium to deliver the program to Delacout and get the information out of him. Delacourt would send Kruger to save Carlyle but is killed in the crossfire. Delacourt tells Kruger to get Max because he has the program in his head. And Kruger decides to get Max through Frey. When Spider sees the program he tells Max this could change the whole system but Max wants to help Frey first.
In the year 2154, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy, who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Delacourt, a government official, will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium. That doesn't stop the people of Earth from trying to get in by any means they can. When unlucky Max is backed into a corner, he agrees to take on a daunting mission that, if successful, will not only save his life but could bring equality to these polarized worlds.
Over 100 years into the future, there are two classes of society. The rich/wealthy live in the pristine space station known as &quot;Elysium&quot;, while the others live in the ruined and overpopulated Earth. The movie introduces Max (Matt Damon), a factory worker living in this filthy environment, gets exposed to a dose of radiation that will kill him in the next five days. In order to be cured, Max must go on a mission to Elysium.<br/><br/>I didn&#39;t have the highest of hopes for Elysium, like a lot of people had. It&#39;s not to say that it looked terrible, the movie has an interesting concept, a great cast, and nifty-looking visuals. I just thought it looked like a solid futuristic sci-fi action film. Although it has its fair share of flaws, Neill Blomkamp (of District 9 fame) does a capable job of introducing a futuristic world dealing with political and environmental issues.<br/><br/>From Good Will Hunting to the Bourne trilogy to Elysium, Matt Damon proves he can be gifted as an actor and can truly get the job done. His performance is nothing short of excellent. Sharlto Copley (Murdock from The A-Team) does a decent job as Agent Kruger, but his performance can be a bit over-the-top, in my opinion. Jodie Foster delivered a bad performance as the Secretary of Defense. Not only is her accent ridiculous, she didn&#39;t bring a lot of sympathy into her character.<br/><br/>The story may be amateur, but it&#39;s an interesting and sometimes touching one about how two societies divide and trying to bring back humanity. It also makes you become involved in the utopian and dystopian environments and to know why they are divided for a reason. However, the movie is left with a few unanswered questions. The effects are visually stunning; the action scenes may overshadow the messages that Blomkamp is trying to convey. Nevertheless, they are brutal and gripping.<br/><br/>6.5/10
I thought that it would be impossible to make a sci-fi movie worse than Event Horizon, but was sadly mistaken. The movie works on the most far fetched premise, that somehow in the midst of gross overpopulation and environmental destruction, an immense orbiting habitat was created for the rich and famous, while the rest of the planet&#39;s population lived in abject poverty and sought ways to escape to this orbiting Elysium. How all the world&#39;s rich and powerful were able to pull off this feat, somehow intimidating billions while getting their incredible habitat created is left to one&#39;s imagination. There is hardly an original idea here, as regards the age old tensions between rich and poor, just a politically correct mish-mash to titillate viewers looking for cheap thrills. The writer/director of this farce, Neill Blomkamp, stated after its completion &quot; I feel like I f––d it up, I feel like ultimately the story is not the right story.&quot; Well, at least he got that right. Oh, and did I forget to mention, the residents of Elysium are overwhelmingly white and the &quot;illegals&quot; trying to get in overwhelmingly Hispanic? The astronomical economic rise of China and India are conveniently left out of the equation, as is the preponderance of enormous gaps between economic classes in Latin America. Check out Oblivion or Europa Report if in need of some recent, satisfying, original Sci-fi; you won&#39;t be disappointed.
At last, a good big film. The legacy of the summer, thus far, has been jetsam: moribund movies that lie there, bloated and beached, gasping to break even. But here is something angry and alive: Elysium.
Former car thief Max da Costa (<a href="/name/nm0000354/">Matt Damon</a>), now a parolee working for the Armadyne weapons factory in 2154 Los Angeles and recently exposed to a lethal dose of radiation bound to kill him in five days, agrees to steal &quot;organic information&quot; (e.g., bank codes and passwords) from the brain of Armadyne CEO John Carlyle (<a href="/name/nm0001209/">William Fichtner</a>) in exchange for passage to Elysium, a man-made space station inhabited by Earth&#39;s elite, in hopes of gaining access to a Med-bay, a medical chamber capable of healing him. However, what begins as a desperate effort to save his life leads to something far greater. Elysium is based on a screenplay written by South African-Canadian filmmaker Neill Blomkamp. While Frey (<a href="/name/nm0103797/">Alice Braga</a>) carries Matilda (<a href="/name/nm4590173/">Emma Tremblay</a>) to the surface to find a Med-bay, Max and Spider (<a href="/name/nm0609944/">Wagner Moura</a>) stay behind to locate the Elysium&#39;s computer core. In an attempt to stop them, Tucker (<a href="/name/nm1663205/">Sharlto Copley</a>) pursues, but Max manages to kill him by hurling him over a ledge, still holding on to a grenade, which explodes as he falls. Spider breaks into the computer core and changes the computer program to read Earth&#39;s population as being &quot;legal&quot;. As Spider prepares to download the &quot;organic info&quot; from Max&#39;s brain, he is warned that the download will be &quot;lethal&quot; to Max. Already knowing that, Max still agrees to the download. After contacting Frey for a final goodbye, Max pushes the button that starts the download and reboots the computer, killing himself in the process. President Patel (<a href="/name/nm0846687/">Faran Tahir</a>) arrives with security robots, but they refuse to arrest Spider, who is now recognized as a citizen of Elysium. Meanwhile, Frey has found a Med-bay and uses it to heal Matilda, reversing her final stage lymphocytic leukemia in seconds. In the final scene, shuttles containing dozens of Med-bays arrive on Earth from Elysium to begin the process of healing the sick, causing Frey to look up and smile. Elysium spins, like a wheel, and the resulting centrifugal force creates artificial gravity on its inner edge. This keeps both its inhabitants and the atmosphere [not really, see entry above!] effectively pinned down to the surface. It&#39;s an old concept for a practical way to achieve artificial gravity in space.
