Just got back from seeing Elysium.
It was pretty cool I think. It was a bit too shootem-up for my tastes. They could dxpand on the social-political issues in that time. In the end it gave me the impression of the movie Repo Men.
The plot is pretty easy to figure out once it gets going, but I think the director wanted to purposely use a simple plot to get his socio-political message across.
One of my coworkers who saw it when it came out seemed to dislike the movie but I think he's a movie troll. I have yet to hear him say he actually liked a movie.
It's really raw and volient which is how it earned its Rated R status.
I say go for it! It was enjoyable (:
