Entertaining

Rating: 7/10 (18 December 2013)

Not much to say about Elysium. If you watch the trailer, you'll be expecting a decent and entertaining sci-fi movie, and Elysium is just that. Nothing new in terms of story,(although the first 30-40 min let you think you're in for something more), good special effects, good acting(considering the genre), overall good movie. I would like to praise Sharlto Copley on his performance on this one, a very pleasant surprise portraying the villain. To sum up, Elysium isn't a mind blowing movie, but its very entertaining, you will get your money's worth on this one if you go to the movies to be entertained, if not, Elysium is still preety decent, but don't expect big twists and turns, its all very predictable. Still, a solid 7/10.
