Elysium-Don't Be Fooled

Thinking about going to see Matt and Jody in Elysium. Better think twice. All it is, is a propaganda film about how horrible we citizens have been towards the illegal aliens surrounding us. The acting is well below par for Matt and Jody. Foster's voice doesn't match the movement of her lips. Nor does she sound like her. It's weird and takes away from any performance she may have tried to give. Hard to believe that she needed a paycheck so much she would just phone it in.
She plays an aggressive Hillary type secretary of defense, except she knows what's happening and calls in the air strikes. She plays against a president who is told to go back and do more fund raising.
But throughout the film you hear snide remarks about the wealthy citizens and how horrible they are to the non citizens. They even work in Obamacare to the story. They should at least say that the following is a paid political message.
 Funny how most of the non citizens speak with a Mexican accent. Coincidence? I think not! Propaganda? Absolutely! In the end the audience was fleeing from the theatre. In short it stunk! Wait for it to come to cable and then, don't watch it. It rates a strong P.U.
