In the year 2159, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Rhodes, a hard line government official, will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium. That doesn’t stop the people of Earth from trying to get in, by any means they can. When unlucky Max is backed into a corner, he agrees to take on a daunting mission that, if successful, will not only save his life, but could bring equality to these polarized worlds.

Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
A cautionary tale about the dangers of squandering resources that wastes its own talent.
– Adam Nayman,
Globe and Mail,

rotten:
The action is bludgeoning.
– David Edelstein,
New York Magazine/Vulture,

fresh:
Though Elysium is a testament to Blomkamp's extraordinary skill as a visual filmmaker, it does not speak nearly so well for his gifts as a writer.
– Christopher Orr,
The Atlantic,
9 Aug 2013
rotten:
Like Max, the movie has to keep moving, and Mr. Blomkamp lets you fill in the gaps yourself as it progresses. Or not.
– Matthew Kassel,
New York Observer,

rotten:
Any thematic audacity is snuffed out by action sequences that you can now buy at Dollar General.
