# I understood why I like Elysium so much

I understood why I like Elysium so much. Blomkamp's entire style is out of the question, because it goes without saying that this is the most powerful and very special phenomenon in modern Hollywood. It's just that there are directors now who have completely secured their style and no one can copy them. The most obvious example is Taika Waititi with her style. So Neil Bomkamp is the same, individual. I like that in Elysium the main character is not really a hero at all. He is just an ordinary character who wants to do everything possible to survive on his own, but in the course of the plot, not by choice, but by force of circumstances, he makes the right choice at the right time and thereby becomes a hero.
