"Based on a P.D. James science-fiction novel, THE 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. "

Saw this last Monday. Quite a lot of symbology involved and the OST is quite impressive.

7.5 out of 10

Amazing movie. From the story to acting to the amazing camera shots.

Btw il baby kien CG effects which is very amazing. Anke il burning car u il bullet tal karozza kollha CG effects imma jidru vera brillanti u reali. Qas indunajt sakemm smajt fuqa.

8.5/10

I like the way you're presented into this future world, without knowing what exactly happened, but only have a rough idea about it.

All actors were great, and the atmosphere was very realistic and awesome. The scene where there's the uprising, and we follow the path Theo (Clive Owen) takes (bullets flying everywhere, etc), was one of the best scenes in the movie imo, the atmosphere was super.

All in all, a very good movie, but as some people already said, there isn't much focus on the main story.

Still, I enjoyed this a lot.

8/10

i am reading the book which has a lot of differences from the film till now (which i enjoyed watching i must add) but i would highly suggest anyone who saw the film to read the book for u get a very different feel and look to how the film was presented, no wonder it was so highly praised as a book
