In the future Earth is over populated and so polluted that the wealthy and powerful create a new place to live. It's called Elysium and it's just within Earth's orbit. and they have all sorts of conveniences among them is a machine can heal anyone. So people on Earth who want to use it try to get there. But the Secretary of Defense Delacourt uses unsanctioned operatives like a man named Kruger to keep them off Elysium. Her latest attempt to keep people off Alysium catches the ire of the President who tells her to tone down her attitude and to stop using men like Kruger. Delacourt then approaches Carlyle, the head of Armadyne Corp, the company that built Elysium and all of what they use up there and asks him to make a program that would allow her to remove the President and put someone else in his position. He agrees to do it. On Earth, Max a man who has dreamed of going to Elysium and taking Frey, a girl he grew up with there. Max works for Armadyne and while at work Max is exposed to radiation and has days to live and needs to go to Elysium to use the machine. So he approaches Spider the man who gets people to Elysium for a price. But since Max can't pay him, he makes Max a proposition, he will get him there if Max gets some information out of the head of Armadyne's head. Max agrees and is fitted with an exo-skeleton to help him. They intercept Carlyle as he was leaving for Elysium to deliver the program to Delacout and get the information out of him. Delacourt would send Kruger to save Carlyle but is killed in the crossfire. Delacourt tells Kruger to get Max because he has the program in his head. And Kruger decides to get Max through Frey. When Spider sees the program he tells Max this could change the whole system but Max wants to help Frey first.
In 2154, the population is divided in two social classes: the wealthy people live in Elysium, a space station with all the resources; the poor people live on the exhausted Earth. In Los Angeles, the former car thief Max da Costa is on parole and works in an unhealthy factory Armadyne managed by the CEO John Carlyle. He dreams of saving money to travel to Elysium. Meanwhile the Secretary of Defense of Elysium, Delacourt, plots a coup d'etat against President Patel, with the support of Carlyle. He programs a software that can override Elysium's data system and make any change, including the president's name to Delacourt. Carlyle uploads the software to his brain to increase its protection. Max is exposed to a lethal amount of radiation in Armadyne and has only five more days of life. He seeks out the criminal Spider expecting to travel to Elysium, where he can use a medical chamber called Med-bay that is capable to heal any disease and save his life. Spider tells that if Max steals profitable information, such as bank accounts, from the brain of Carlyle that is on Earth. Max accepts the proposal without knowing the powerful knowledge in Carlyle's brain. When Delacourt learns that the information she needs to become president was stolen from Carlyle brain, she sends the notorious agent Kruger to hunt down Max and recover the software at any cost.
I&#39;m a fan of Jodie Foster and even a fan of few of Matt Damon&#39;s movies, so making the choice to watch this movie was no-brainer. Unfortunately everything starts bad, continues to grow into worse and it ends up disastrous.<br/><br/>My biggest problem here was the screenplay, it&#39;s like the author has never read a book in his/her life and was in a hurry to write the script. In the year of 2013 with such premium actors you would expect better lines than &quot;I will find you, I will hunt you down&quot; from the cacky British negative hero. <br/><br/>Shallow lines, not following on the actors pre-story. Mat Damon is supposed to be some car-thief legend, yet he speaks like a coward most of the time, lives like a rat and uses &quot;man&quot; too much, his bold head is repulsive and along with the tattoos he looks like Neo Nazi more than ex keep-it-cool car thief, but trust me the real disappointment here are the lines he had to act on in the movie… <br/><br/>He was a legend thief - 3 seconds later - now he works in a dumpster-like factory.<br/><br/>He has a childhood girlfriend - 5 seconds later she has kid, he doesn&#39;t keep in touch anymore. 5 seconds later the kid is sick and dying. 5 seconds later after 20 years he is in her house, 5 seconds later he leaves, refuses to help kid. <br/><br/>They overthrow the richest community in the world with 2 guys, who are no &quot;expendables&quot; heroes they are just ghetto thugs. It&#39;s like the rich people would not pay to be protected by at least 100 soldiers… On the whole Elysium there were like 2 droids… <br/><br/>The president William Fichtner looks more like a wedding planner than a creator of Elysium, his death was meaningless and the bad kind of Unexpected. The death of Jodie Foster was even worse, the whole idea of Elysium was that you don&#39;t get sick and you live well, yet she refuses without following her negative character to be helped…<br/><br/>If you ever watched Bornes Ultimacy, silence of the lambs and similar movies where Jodie and Matt are big deal, don&#39;t get fooled, this movie will only ruin your image of them and you will surely watch more than a trailer before you jump into the next movie with them.
Boy, the Asperger crowd are sure excoriating Blomkamp for this one. This is a film with an even grander premise than Total Recall. I guess the Aspies can&#39;t even relate to a hero that sacrifices himself to save humanity. They are too busy pointing out that he didn&#39;t refuel before flying to Elysium. Good gosh, I am an Asperger retard too, but at least I have some tiny shards of empathy, compassion, and a dim understanding of allegory. My favorites are the Aspergiacs that have numbered lists of all the things they think are just totally unreasonable in the movie. Don&#39;t be mad at them. You wouldn&#39;t go to the Special Olympics and start slapping around the kids because they can&#39;t do a 4-minute mile. You also shouldn&#39;t wish bodily harm on reviewers so literal, so linear, so left-brained, so detail-oriented, and so lacking in any analog understanding. Just be glad your brain does not lack the synaptic pruning such that when presented with an image of people running for their life, your first thought is &quot;Hey, shouldn&#39;t they gas up the car?&quot; Perhaps it will give comfort to know it is a simple retardation, and when we get older, maybe move out of our parent&#39;s basement, and maybe have some life experience, we will be able to understand why this is such a great movie. Heck, maybe in 30 or 40 years, all these Asperger sufferers will come back and edit their entry to admit that maybe there is a thing called great art, and maybe we Aspies have a hard time understanding it, but maybe, just maybe, this movie does not suck.<br/><br/>I will try to explain. It won&#39;t do much good, since along with the literalness, OCD, and social impairment, comes a monstrous dose of stubbornness, but lets give it a try. OK kids, see, when you make a movie, well, it has to be visual. Now the real future work hell is all you guys sitting in open-plan offices, with free cafeterias and 14-hour days. But see, filming a bunch of dudes sitting all day and typing is just not very visual. And sure, it will kill you, with diabetes, and stroke, and morbid obesity, but that is kinda boring to watch too. So this living hell you are in –right this minute– see, Blomkamp showed it like a factory with stuff moving and loud noises and dangerous radiation. And it will kill you in five days. It is not important that every little detail be coherent to how you think the future should be. Its an allegorical representation of the life you live– right this minute. If you don&#39;t recognize the two bosses, then you should apply to work at any billion-plus-dollar corporation and you can meet dozens of guys _exactly_ like them.<br/><br/>And no, Blomkamp is not going to &quot;show us more of Elysium&quot; because watching privileged rich pricks living privileged lives in a perfect place is almost as boring as what you do for a living. And before you complain that it was stupid to have to shoot the illegal aliens down from Earth, did you ever consider that maybe weapons of any kind are banned on Elysium? I can excuse Asperger brain function, but blithering idiocy is a bit harder to forgive. Watch the darn movie and try to admit that its world does not have to work exactly like the way you want it to. Were you screaming about the woman wearing a 45ACP Colt pistol in Star Wars? I am fairly certain that many people sensed the populist political slant in the movie early on, and decided to hate it from that moment. So they start pointing out &quot;the angle of the thruster could not possibly get the ship to escape velocity hence the entire movie is crap.&quot; Well, maybe they can cling to the belief that if we all act like selfish pricks everything will work out just peachy, but I gave up that bogus &quot;philosophy&quot; long ago.<br/><br/>The script is brilliant, the CGI is brilliant, the performances are brilliant. I found myself thinking &quot;So that&#39;s what Jodie Foster is really like,&quot; since I need to hate her to console myself that I don&#39;t wake up in bed with her every morning. I bet she is a really nice when she is not acting. Dang. The only thing I hated, and I really hated it a lot, was the Spaz-cam. Just like the Bourne movies, where an IMDb commenter said &quot;get a tripod and some lights&quot;. What is it with Matt Damon and cameramen having epileptic seizures? Leave that crap for MTV and Mad Max movies. I dinged it a star for this alone.
All the interest and good will built up by the sharply conceived preliminaries is washed away in a succession of scenes that feel crushingly routine and generic, not to mentioned guided by ideological urges.
Former car thief Max da Costa (<a href="/name/nm0000354/">Matt Damon</a>), now a parolee working for the Armadyne weapons factory in 2154 Los Angeles and recently exposed to a lethal dose of radiation bound to kill him in five days, agrees to steal &quot;organic information&quot; (e.g., bank codes and passwords) from the brain of Armadyne CEO John Carlyle (<a href="/name/nm0001209/">William Fichtner</a>) in exchange for passage to Elysium, a man-made space station inhabited by Earth&#39;s elite, in hopes of gaining access to a Med-bay, a medical chamber capable of healing him. However, what begins as a desperate effort to save his life leads to something far greater. Elysium is based on a screenplay written by South African-Canadian filmmaker Neill Blomkamp. While Frey (<a href="/name/nm0103797/">Alice Braga</a>) carries Matilda (<a href="/name/nm4590173/">Emma Tremblay</a>) to the surface to find a Med-bay, Max and Spider (<a href="/name/nm0609944/">Wagner Moura</a>) stay behind to locate the Elysium&#39;s computer core. In an attempt to stop them, Tucker (<a href="/name/nm1663205/">Sharlto Copley</a>) pursues, but Max manages to kill him by hurling him over a ledge, still holding on to a grenade, which explodes as he falls. Spider breaks into the computer core and changes the computer program to read Earth&#39;s population as being &quot;legal&quot;. As Spider prepares to download the &quot;organic info&quot; from Max&#39;s brain, he is warned that the download will be &quot;lethal&quot; to Max. Already knowing that, Max still agrees to the download. After contacting Frey for a final goodbye, Max pushes the button that starts the download and reboots the computer, killing himself in the process. President Patel (<a href="/name/nm0846687/">Faran Tahir</a>) arrives with security robots, but they refuse to arrest Spider, who is now recognized as a citizen of Elysium. Meanwhile, Frey has found a Med-bay and uses it to heal Matilda, reversing her final stage lymphocytic leukemia in seconds. In the final scene, shuttles containing dozens of Med-bays arrive on Earth from Elysium to begin the process of healing the sick, causing Frey to look up and smile. Elysium spins, like a wheel, and the resulting centrifugal force creates artificial gravity on its inner edge. This keeps both its inhabitants and the atmosphere [not really, see entry above!] effectively pinned down to the surface. It&#39;s an old concept for a practical way to achieve artificial gravity in space.
