Watch Elysium For Free

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Absolutely brilliant

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

In the year 2154, the very wealthy live on a man-made space station while the rest of the population resides on a ruined Earth. A man takes on a mission that could bring equality to the polarized worlds. Matt Damon truly brings the action in 'Elysium' a film that is both beautiful looking but also packed with beautiful cinemtography and a very intelligent plot. Sharlto Copley also did a terrific job as the main antagonist of the movie and Jodie Foster? She was pretty good too but this is really a very underrated sci-fi epic and i guess that year was full of them.

Elysium, while it was not necessarily bad, was a bit disappointing. The special effects in this film look great, from the violence, to Elysium itself. However, the story is not so great. The plot is decent at best, and the character development is very underdone. The relationships between characters were barley explored, and the characters seemed to have next to no emotion. The felt like, in a sense, machines. In my opinion, the best part of the movie by far was Sharlto Copley's Kruger. At the end of the day, the movie was OK, and if you have nothing else to watch, then give it a go. But, I wouldn't be in a rush to see this one.

Elysium is the name of an orbiting satellite. It has a controlled environment and is where the rich and powerful live. The United States has been reduced to a land of illegals in an extension of class warfare. Health care is different for the rich than the poor. The "illegals" attempt to go to Elysium to get health care. The film also is an extension of surveillance drones, automated robots, and how computers run the world.In an unusual role Jodi Foster plays Delacourt, the emotionless Secretary of Defense who protects Elysium. At times she is similar to Jack Nicholson in "A Few Good Men" and really needed to be more like him. It was not a good role for her. Matt Damon plays Max in his usual man against the system. After an industrial accident, Max has 5 days to live and opts to join the resistance against the powers of Elysium.I have not read the book, but you can tell from the film that the book was better as there are massive parallels to today's society which most likely the film couldn't incorporate them all. Yet at the same time, I felt a bit bogged down by the overtness of this morality film.Good looking graphics. Good ending. Fair plot. Dialogue needed to be lighter. Politically to the left.Parental Guide: F-bombs. No sex or nudity.

This could have been a really great film. Enjoyable and well acted.It was totally let down by nauseating camera work. Rather than adding a feel of action, the constantly jumping camera work was literally nauseating.It is about time film makers realised that this is a bad thing.This had to be turned off before the end.
