Summer of Meh Continues: ELYSIUM and PLANES

Both have gotten pretty negative reviews.

Holding out hope for YOU'RE NEXT.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

I loved District 9 so much.

Elysium looked overdone with CGI. That really puts me off. Jodie Foster looking like Suze Orman walking around in front of a green screen didn't sell me on it.

Ha! She has kind of become a turn off to me, which is a shame, because she's obviously a very talented crazy lady.

It's more than a 'meh' summer, it's a summer of major flops. Pacific Rim, Lone Ranger, Turbo, White House Down, After Earth, Red 2, RIPD, etc.

I saw Elysium this morning and meh is a pretty good way to describe it.

Bettyboy, I do have to say damn you, because I read your comment before seeing the movie and all I could think about the entire time Foster was on screen (which felt like less than 10 minutes) was that she needs to make a Suze Orman biopic stat!

The first 30-40 minutes are very slow. Then things picked up in the middle and there was so nice action in the final third. It took so much time to get there though and I don't know if everything was truly earned.

They spent a lot time on Earth and not much on Elysium. Nothing was explained of how it was built, how the governments were run, how one became a citizen of Elysium, etc.

I thought it was about on par with World War Z or maybe slightly less successful. Both were fine movies, but not great ones.

SPOILER****************

The worst offense was Foster's death! Talk about being anti-climatic. Sure, her character was barely developed, but to go out with such a whimper was pathetic.

END SPOILER********************

Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco. Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!
