The Villages is definitely not the market for Elysium. Thought Matt Damon looked like he fit the part of Mat. A washed up car thief who is trying to get by through working in a factory for what looked like very long shifts. Getting up at 5 a.m. working and then going home and sleeping seemed to be his life. He was trying to not violate his probation.

You could definitely recognize this movie as the work of Neill Blomkamp the Director from District 9.
