Saw Elysium Today
So overall it was very good. It sticks to the style of gritty realism that Blomkamp does so well.
CGI was top notch blending seamlessly with reality.
The story is well thought out and isn't afraid to show a realistic situation gone wrong.
My only and biggest complaint is that the political message is so glaringly obvious. It's like the entire movie is the border wars on steroids spliced with Sci-Fi.
For those who have seen it, do you have any idea how the ChemRail works, or what it is?

I wanted to see it today but my friend got lazy. I'm not too surprised by the political undertones given the case with district 9.

2 RepliesI saw it as well. It was good. I like the robot appearances because robots are awesome. The movie for some strange reason reminds me of mass effect.
