Review of Children of Men (2006) by Alex A — 26 Dec 2014
Children of Men has a terrific concept for Sci-Fi about a dystopian future where humanity is infertile for eighteen years. The cinematography here is beautiful, and the performances are good. I didn't find the characters all that memorable or interesting though, and felt that it's intriguing story was executed as a standard violent chase thriller dressed up in impressive camera-work and deep themes about the importance of children.
Had there been slightly more plot exposition and a more relatable protagonist with deeper character development, I would have loved Children of Men.
