Children of Men (film review)

This is a very interesting film from start to finish. Very well shot, great action and an interesting premise. The year is 2027 and for some reason that is unknown women are infertile. By some miracle a "Fugee" becomes pregnant and is set to give birth to the youngest person in the world. The next oldest is 19.

Clive Owen delivers a solid performance playing the hero in this film and Michael Caine does a good job adding some humor and color to the bleak, dark future that is Britain. The film seems as though it is shot through a fog, it is very dark through out. This technique expresses the world of the future, dirty, polluted and unlivable.

Overall worth while, some minor problems with plot and story but nothing to bad.
