Elysium (2013) - IMDb

In the year 2154, the very wealthy live on Elysium, a Stanford torus high-tech space station governed by President Patel (Faran Tahir), in a utopian setting which includes access to private medical machines that offer instant cures, while everyone else lives below on the overpopulated, ruined, "Third World slum"Earth has become. Those who maintain Elysium will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve their citizens' lifestyle, even destroying ships that attempt to get there.
After an industrial accident leaves him with a cancer virus, 36-year-old factory-worker and ex-con Max DeCosta (Matt Damon) has only five days to get from Los Angeles to Elysium in order to be cured. Max straps into a powerful exoskeleton and attempts to kidnap a rich businessman (William Fichtner) in order to steal his identity and hijack his way into Elysium. This pits him against Elysium’s Secretary Delacourt (Jodie Foster) and her violent secret police forces, led by Agent Kruger (Sharlto Copley).

He really goes overboard with it too.

I wonder if he would be living on Elysium or on earth?

I liked him in Euro Trip. His time on screen was brief. He lip synced someone else's song. Good song, catchy tune. He was really good in "Team America, World Police".

yeah I know that is my option.

But why does Hollywood have to have political messages in sci fi movies?

Can't I just go enjoy a sci fi movie without thinking about politics.

I wanted to see it until I read the plot synopsis.

The hypocrisy is what also irks me most about Hollywood. Like I said Damon would not be living on the dilapted, poverty stricken planet he pretends to care so much for from his multi million dollar waterfront estates.

Surely he's heartbroken over the lack of retarded conservative attendance.
