Jupiter Ascending is as blatant as The Matrix series, perhaps no surprise since the Wachowski sibs wrote and directed both. (No, lets not get into the WTH, Wachowski brothers, sisters, whatever topic).
I don't think this is "Hollywood telling us what it plans to do" but rather the Wachowskis showing us what they SEE the cabal doing already.
Jupiter Ascending has the hyper-elite "harvesting" the populations of entire planets to extract a life- and youth-extending drug. They own and control almost everything of importance and are . . . well, a lot like the elites we're dealing with here and now.
The film didn't do well at the box office or with most critics. The special effects are eye-catching but the very best and most impactful effect, to me, was the clear difference between the psychopathic elite and the decent "normal" characters. The story REALLY highlights the importance of love and connection among emotionally healthy people.
