Human struggle in the future

It may be disappointed as a cool film.
The beginning is a bleak scene, the empty, dry and barren ground, the damaged high-rise buildings that have experienced nuclear war, the yellow-faced, filthy and numb crowd, the rude and unreasonable robotic police... This is the future of the earth in the eyes of the director. On the contrary, the rich live in the outer space that is lined with trees, rich in material, free from disease and filth, and cures all diseases, which is more magical than the old military doctors, called the bliss space.
The wild and unruly male protagonist encounters radiation in the factory, and when his life is short-lived, he unscrupulously heads to the bliss space. First, he robbed a rich man, and stored important information unintentionally in his brain, then surrendered to the space, and finally realized that he gave up his life for the great goal. The villain's beast was perverted and talkative enough, and finally died of excessive nagging. The hostess, it's basically a Virgin's vase.
The action scene is the battle against the robot and the spaceship during the robbery, and the final battle. Those who specialize in big scenes like me will definitely find it uncomfortable. But the director mainly wants to express the antagonism of class, the struggle of human nature, willingness and giving up, in short, it is not the routine of us ordinary people.
The director is a bit heavy, the brain implanting the exoskeleton device and the villain repairing the face are naked and nauseous. In the end, the fried flesh and blood flew all over the place.
There is no desire to watch it a second time.
