Tale of the Peasent, the Soldier, the Dictator and the Poltician

Rating: 5/10 (1 December 2013)

Tale of the Peasant, the Soldier, the trans-gender Dictator and the impotent Politician.
First of all: Elysium being in space has no relevance in the story whatsoever. It's merely a decorative scene, that can be used to market the movie. If it was an island, the story could be the very same.
The story holds no surprises. Except how infinitely stupid the enemies are. They have one pack of (human) soldiers, in fact they discharge even them, so there are none. This is a world-wide dictatorship, with one person to shoot down spaceships going to Elysium! Right. Of course none of the robots can shoot the Peasant, even when they have a clear shot with a machine gun. None of the mafia guys have exoskeleton, so he can easily beat them up, no problem. Right.
Action without surprise is boring! There is no tension during fistfights if I know what's going to happen. In fact they are painfully long.
It is not possible to write a spoiler about this movie.
