Children of Men

When I hear good things about a film I'm always wary about going to see it. Too often I'm disappointed. With Children of Men its a different story. I'd like to sit here and rave about how great it was and to give you a blow by blow critic of the fim in a effort to make you go and see, but I can't.

Anything I wrote would not do this film justice. It was fantastic. Imagine somwhere between the beach scene in Private Ryan, the camera work of 28 Days Later and the most potent images from the News for the past 6 years. Condense that into 109 mins with a simple story line with very understated acting and you have Children of Men.

You should see this film.
