Some interesting ideas didn't lead to anything substantial

Rating: 4/10 (3 January 2018)

The general idea of a society on a satellite, while Earth is in shatters, is interesting, though not very original. The corruption of such society, again, interesting. The protagonist, small-time criminal who tries to redeem himself, yet nobody is helping him (quite the contrary), also interesting. There are other lesser interesting pieces.
But, the pieces don't bond well, if at all. It's just jumbled up together in some hope it will all work out. But it doesn't.
Casting is a major issue. Matt Damon is wrong for this. He's not a great actor, but, if cast well, he's OK. But, when cast bad, like here, he's _bad_. Jody Foster, quite similar, actually. She might be a somewhat better actress, but, she too is prone to miscasting. It's not that she's the "main bad guy", she's actually great at playing The Bitch. But, not this kind of Bitch. The other "main bad guy" is trying to be scary, but fails and I couldn't understand half of the things he said.
Bottom line, pass this one. There are much better SciFi movies, including some with similar ideas.
