Boring, very boring.
My friends and I actually had trouble staying awake while watching this movie. Many things were thrown at you in this movie, but little was ever explained. Cast was annoying and I couldn't have cared less if they survived or not. The usual story of a group of people trying to escape, finding a...

Hope For The Future?
Quite simply put, this is the most amazing piece of cinema that I've seen in a while and certainly the most plausible vision of a future Anglican dystopia yet committed to film. It's an instant addition to my favourite films of all time. Its difficult to do the experience of watching it justice...

Stop The Apocalypse, The Baby Needs Changing!...
In 2027 the Earth is in its final days. A pandemic infertility plague has wiped out any hope of a future generation of offspring. The world has responded by tearing itself to pieces w/ terrorism, war, and a new world disorder. England is the only place left w/ somewhat of a functioning...

Making Mush of Malthus
While Children of Men begins with an interesting premise and is visually tantalizing, the logical gaps here are wider than Blart's Britches. For one thing, though systemic repression of an influx of Third World immigrants is a genuine and frightening scenario, it makes sense only in a world of...

Amazing...
This movie is one of the best movies I have seen in my life. I am amazed at the bad reviews being given here - to those of you who are too pretentious and/or nearsighted to appreciate this film, I feel sorry for you. This movie is well worth owning.

Dark Visions Of A Near Future
A song kept playing in my head while I watched Children Of Men: David Bowie's Five Years. You know the one? It's the first track off the Ziggy Stardust album and it's about the release of the news that the human race was dying off. No nuclear war, no asteroids, no alien invasions... just a...

3 stars out of 4
The Bottom Line:A suprising flop at the box office, Children of Men is a solid adventure story that gets a great deal of value out of its dystopic setting; it's not as profound a movie as some people have maintained, but it's very well-directed and consistently interesting.

Thought Provoking Entertainment
My 25 year old son recommended this movie; he has a bent toward music and movies well outside of mainstream. This movie offers meaning at multiple levels - look beyond the obvious. I enjoyed it and hope you find worth the viewing as well.

Perhaps a New Beginning
This is an intriguing film that has you going one way, and then turns you around the other way. As the film goes on it is bloody and horrible how the fugees are treated. I would suggest watching the short interview film under features before watching the movie. That will give you more of a sense...
