Children of Men
Has anybody else seen this?
One of the best movies I've seen in a long time.

Re: Children of Men
Yep. Great movie. One of the four best movies I've seen in the last year along with the Namesake, Pan's Labyrinth, and Casino Royale.

Re: Children of Men
I also thought it was a pretty good flick.
I was surpised how realistic the violence was in the urban warfare scenes...

Re: Children of Men
Loved it. As Blimpie said, the urban warfare scenes were really intense and seemed pretty realistic. Pretty thought provoking movie.

Re: Children of Men
I really enjoyed how the director utilized only a single camera to pan different aspects throughout a scene. That technique was especially effective for the urban warfare scenes; made them much more chaotic, exciting, and visceral.
