"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 (Jodie Foster), 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 (Matt Damon) 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."

He explained it perfectly; a movie that uses the idea of hav/have not, rich/poor, etc. I really like how he took and worked with that concept. Gonna be a great movie, can't wait!

Im actually pretty excited for this movie. Ddamos is great....but this is his first Sci Fi movie if Im not mistaken. Jodie Foster is great....District 9 was original....make it rated R.
