Rating: 9/10 (17 November 2013)

There are movies which you would want to see because of the director's previous work. In this case , I got the opportunity to see Alfonso Cuarón's Children Of Men(2006) after watching his eventful Gravity(2013) and I felt good with astonishing and mind blowing movie.
The year is 2027 and there is only one pregnant women left in the entire world. Former activist Theo(Clive Owen) agrees to help her to transfer her across the border into the safe hands.
The most interesting to watch this film was its unique and attractive story. As you go into the post-apocalyptic world, disturbing images of bomb-explosion, gun shots and innocent killings will haunt you for sometime. However, the film will give a ray of hope when Theo agrees to shift the pregnant lady to a better place. From here onwards, there is no turning back and film will take you to the journey of hardship, struggle and hope to survive. Hats off to Alfonso Cuarón for creating a perfect scenario of post-apocalyptic world and keeping the attention till the end. Script is the hero of the film. Dialogues are punching. Art direction is astounding along with one of best camera-work I have seen in the recent films. The movie completely belongs to Clive Owen and the actor keeps no stone unturned with brave and powerful performance. Watch for him as he traverses between different building in search of Kee.
Children of Men is one the best apocalyptic films with its brilliant direction and powerful script along with stupendous performances. Excellent 4.5/5
