I am so disappointed !

Rating: 4/10 (11 December 2013)

I've watched Elysium after reading the reviews here and was extremely disappointed. Mat Damon acting was great and so was the ideas behind the technology but the rest - the screenplay, sound, scenes, story. it was SO low. story was so flat. characters with no depth (maybe there was some in the book, if there was one). yes, district9 was different and this movie have the same "air" to it (photography-wise, sequences etc.) but the rest is just s**t. (sorry Mat) anyway, just got back from watching and I'm speechless. Waste of time. Waste of money.
To top it off, What amazed me most is the huge gap between the reviews here in IMDb and the movie I've just seen. many users gave it a rating of almost 7 so i guess they weren't all payed to do so, but it may say something about the common taste these days. (or maybe it is just me)
