Dystopia is all the rage these days so it's no surprise that Matt Damon and Jodie Foster's Elysium has been creating quite the buzz of late.

The film tells the tale of a future Earth that has been drained of all it's resources. The poor are forced to live off the lifeless land, while the rich have migrated to a flourishing space station, where they can live life to the full.

These here TV spots give us a sneak peek at some of the action we can expect as Damon aims to infiltrate the wonderful world that Foster and her affluent buddies live in. We think it looks rather cool, but why don't you have a watch and decide for yourself?


Elysium
is due to hit Irish cinemas on August 21st.
