Elysium - A Review

2.5 Stars - Meh

So, privatised healthcare is bad and action is shaky and poorly shot...

This is one of those films that thinks it is clever just because it is trying to talk about a social issue in a sci-fi setting. But that is nothing new and here it isn't anything interesting. Just kind of feels like an overly long episode of the Twilight Zone, and not a good one, one of the lesser ones no-one ever really talks about...

I guess the performances are okay, but really the characters aren't much to get invested in. Needs more William Fichtner

some joke about Matt Damon being bald or something...

In short, overblown and not nearly subtle enough. I'd say give it a miss
