Netflix just added Matt Damon’s forgotten sci-fi action movie — and it’s perfect for fans of ‘Mad Max’

Matt Damon in the poster for "Elysium" (2013).

The start of a new month means the biggest streaming service adds a bunch of titles to its library. With the start of the spooky season, you might expect a few horror movies, but in this case, I want to highlight the underrated sci-fi action movie “Elysium” that just landed on Netflix.

I'll admit I don’t usually reach for big-budget sci-fi, yet this movie ended up being a pleasant surprise. Starring Matt Damon and sharing major vibes with “Mad Max,” this movie is set on a near-future Earth where the ultra-rich live on a luxurious space station while everyone else struggles to survive on a polluted, crumbling planet.
