Children of Men, based upon the novel by P.D. James, is a movie that will someday be watched by high school and college students- to be examined for its principles, examples, context, and above all, intent. It's not a perfect film (I'd give it a solid 8/10), but it's definitely an important film, and can strongly recommend it more than anything else released in the previous year. And even with my love and slight biases for Director Alfonso Cuaron, I feel safe enough endorsing this movie for reasons beyond his obviously skilled craft. So drop what you're doing, and go see this mature, thought-provoking motion picture.
In my own opinion, I feel that it should be nominated for Best Picture in any awards ceremony that it hasn't already- but will this happen? I really doubt it- do one better and put your dollar towards a movie that couldn't be more relevant at a time like this in our own world.
