To Elysium and Beyond

Rating: 7/10 (22 August 2013)

From the awesome director of District 9. Set in a future world where the rich and privileged live on Elysium where there is no sickness and the live perfect lives however the planet earth is full of the ill and under privileged. It was great see Matt Damon back in a action oriented role.The movie did take awhile to get going, When it does start the decent to super sci fi action mode it is very entertaining. Some very interesting sequences which are the mark of this director.There are many similarities to District 9 in terms of landscape and design of future earth. A interesting story with some beautiful camera work but does falls short to its predecessor although it is not a sequel it does have similarities to District 9 so you can't help compare both movies.
