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.

I'll see it on account of starring some of my favourite actors, and bears a certain premise resemblance to a comic I qute like.

Sounds like a ripoff of 2019 After The Fall of New York.

Yeah, but it's not like it at all.
