Can You Compare it with these 4 Movies ?

Rating: 8/10 (7 November 2006)

I can't say I didn't like this movie but I expected something much better than what I watched..
Ch.of Men has a good starting idea about how the world will be in like 20years.the director showed us what he wanted us to see in a perfect way.The problem is that what he wants us to see is just another chase movie..
If you think of movies like V for Vendetta , 12 Monkeys , Minority Report , Equilibrium etc and compare them to Children of Men you will get what I mean.The above movies started with a good idea and their story was based on that idea for the rest of the movie.
Children of Men starts with a better idea than these movies so we are all impressed in the beginning..but after this all you see is Clive Owen and the pregnant girl running and being chased all the time.
Honestly , in many scenes during this movie I didn't think of the reason these people are trying to get away.They just run,and run,and run and make you forget the situation the world is on 2030.You don't focus on the social problem but on the action , the special effects etc.
That's why when we finally see a scene that "fits" in the starting idea of the movie, we get emotional (I'm talking about the scene when everybody sees the baby and even the soldiers stop shooting)
They had a GREAT idea of how the world can be some years later and they ruined it all making another..action movie.At least in the movies i mentioned above , all the action is relevant to its starting plot.
Better go watch a movie with Jet-Li if you want to see an action movie :S
Sorry for my bad English :)
