When new life stops, all is lost

Rating: 9/10 (16 October 2006)

In 2027 the world is without hope. No new baby has been born in 18 years because every single person on the planet is, for reasons that are not explained, sterile.
This is the premise the film starts with and although it is only a short line it offers more than enough feeding grounds to build an excellent story from, and this film is a good proof of that. It plays out like one of those books you simply can't put down, that you have to keep reading until the very last page of it.
It tells the bleak tale of a world where people have nothing left to go for - riots on the street and refugees being kept in cages, public transport happening in armored vehicles.
I've always been a sucker for post apocalypse films and this one surely counts as one of those. Excellently played out, brilliant scenery and a strong story.
9 out of 10 lost hopes.
