Review of Elysium (2013) by Mike T — 26 May 2015
It had lots of interesting ideas, and was quite silly with it's odd political discussions that it would inspire in many, many people. It certainly had a lot of complicated and mature ideas and this movie was a lot to take in.
It had a bunch of great ideas, all mixed up with a serious and political tone (with a lot of kick involved) with a huge amount of quick and merciless action, almost WW2-style quick bluntness, but it had heart and had a good message and I enjoyed it for what it was - an interesting and totally complex swirling movie with a ton of little ideas, clicks, heart and a bit of violence - but the violence was done with a quickness, like some of the best movies or videos, it was so visceral and blunt that there was a quickness, seeing people and machines get dispatched like in a board game, it had a feel to it that was a part of the modern era and meant a lot to me for being thought provoking even tho my review is terrible and doesn't do any justice to a movie that meant a lot to me, all things considered.
It was very very good.
