    Children of Men

    Enjoyable, and well directed, but misses the opportunity to be a bit more thoughtful/thought provoking.

    Alright.

    Really quality film but got to agree with that.

    Doesnt develop the characters or the whole infertility thing enough, only mentioning it in reference.

    Great opening scene as well

    Enjoyed the film on the whole, even if the acting was a bit bland, especially Clive Owen in the first 30 or so mins, but that may have been down to the lack of character development as has been mentioned before

    nothing happens in this film and clive owen manages to pull in a fairly wooden performance, again.. how does this guy ever get cast? he's useless.. even ash from casualty outshone him..

    reminded me of 28 days later in a lot of ways, and that wasn't the greatest piece of film ever..
