Elysium

Parece que fuera el sino de la tierra y de los hombres, situacion que es posible observar a traves de la historia universal. Pero no seria posible hacer una película que muestre lo contrario? sería una lección o un modelo para todos en un mundo tan convulsionado?

If you want an action movie, this one really rocks. There are some unneeded clichés but, all in all, is quite an enjoying journey. In addition, Matt Damon, Jodie Foster and, remarkably, Sharlto Copley perform at great level.

Wow... Where do I begin? I just got back from the cinema and I can still feel the adrenaline rushing through me. I was already a huge fan of director Neill Blomkamp's previous effort, District 9, so my expectations were running pretty high. And for once, I was not disappointed. No, I got even more than I could have hoped for. Elysium is a terrific film. Plain and simple.

At least Neill Blomkamp looks like he was able to recycle some of his “District 9” sets for this sci-Fi adventure, but unfortunately that wasn’t all that we will have seen before. The planet Earth is now home to the plebs of society whilst the elite live on an orbiting space station complete with life-giving tech, lakes, rivers, hills, trees and flowers. Those up there are determined to keep the earthlings off their lawns, and so have elaborate defence arrangements in place - commanded by the ruthless and perfectly coiffured “Delacourt” (Jodie Foster) who has an army of ships, droids and merce…
