Re: Elysium *OT*

In Response To: Elysium *OT* (Cody Miller)

: It's perhaps the most cinematic video game ever made though!

Not as good as District 9, but still awesome. Would have been much better if it had been longer, that way characters (and more importantly, their motivations) would have been fleshed out more. I am not bothered by shakey-cam, but it still seemed pervasive throughout. Some scenes could have done without it...

Idealistic? A bit, but what's good is that it ends in a way that is open to debate. What would be the reprecussions of the film's events? What will change? In the end, would anything really be better? Also, it would have been nicer to see the politics within Elysium, as apparently crimes against humanity get little more than a strike against your record... Still, I'm glad they did make a big deal about the killing of civilians... Great film, will watch again.
