Children of Men (2006)

This looks killer. I'm going to go see it tonight with my dad, and I'm really looking forward to it.

IMDb plot summary:
In 2027, as humankind faces the likelihood of its own extinction, a disillusioned government agent agrees to help transport and protect a miraculously pregnant woman to a sanctuary at sea where her child's birth may help scientists to save the future of mankind.

It has a 93% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. Has anyone seen it yet?

I'll post a review tonight.

Saw it back in September 2006.

I would give it 7-8/10.

My girlfriend went to see it last night, said it was pretty good. Nothing great, but worth seeing.

I think it looks pretty damn cool though.

Just saw it.



Fan-fucking-tastic.

Beautiful and gritty, apocalyptic and hopeful. This is the best movie to come our way since The Departed.

You'll love it. It's a science fiction epic of Blade Runner quality, except better.

The cast is phenominal, the execution and pacing are perfect.
