Children of men

Has anyone seen Children of men?

I thought it was really good, P.D James is a very good writer and i thought the film did the book justice

I know it has Cuaron at the helm, but I think this really looks awful.

Children of Men Trailer

Based on a P.D. James science-fiction novel, Children of Men is set in a futuristic dsytopia where humankind is on the brink of extinction and a sole pregnant woman holds the key to survival. A disillusioned bureaucrat (Clive Owen) and a woman from his past (Julianne Moore) are tasked with shepherding the pregnant woman to a secret organization that's been researching how to restore fertility to the world's population.

Cast: Clive Owen, Julianne Moore, Michael Caine, Chjtwetel Ejiofor, Peter Mullan

Director: Alfonso Cuaron

Release Date: Christmas Day, 2006

I really want to see this, it seems like a compelling story, and great actors

Yeah saw the trailer for this a while ago, doesn't look like your every day run-of-the-mill film. I'm giving it a watch.

Saw it a while back, thought it was pretty good. Not as good as I expected, though. Clive Owen gives a really good performance.

Christmas day 2006? seriously? i saw it, like, a couple of months ago... 😖

solid movie, not as good as i was hoping though...

So, you expected it to be awful, you actually thought it was pretty good, but this wasn't as good as you expected it to be?!?!?!?!

What?

Well, the trailer looks pretty awful. But after a while, all the hype caught up with me. Critics calling it a masterpiece. So I went in with pretty high expectations.

It's pretty good, story line is limited but it paints a nice picture of our current society.

I saw it tonight, thought it was fantastic. Almost cried near the end. A very hard-hitting warning, I think.

The film's theatrical run got expanded to 1000+ theaters, practically wide release. So I'll be catching it again tomorrow. Everyone else should, as well, if not only for the cinematography.

great movie!
