CriticsCritics: 63
AudienceAudience: 6.5

In a divided future, wealthy citizens live on a pristine space station while Earth’s overcrowded population struggles below. After a workplace accident leaves a desperate man racing against time, he accepts a dangerous mission that could save his life and challenge the system separating the two worlds.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want gritty, visually impressive science-fiction action with social themes, especially like District 9 or Chappie; Not for you if you prefer subtle ideas and carefully developed characters.
