Children of Men (2006) Review

In Children of Men, Clive Owen plays civil servant Theo Faron who finds himself believing in existence and its preservation again after the world's society is approaching extinction. Children of Men's dystopian premise intuitively makes you hooked through its themes of hope, redemption and faith. Thus, the idea of infertile human beings truly resonates an alarming concept. Building off the films incredible theme, direction in the film was close to perfection with some incredible one-shots, such as the insanely chaotic car ambush scene. I would give this film four and a half out of 5 stars.
