Clive Owen delivers

Rating: 8/10 (9 January 2007)

This movie shows a future not so far from now that really could happen! There are a lot of serious themes touched in this movie but handled in such a way that you can laugh about it if you want to! It is nice to see sensitive issues like immigration and terrorism portrayed in this way! But how important the subjects are for me it didn't matter that much! To me it was about the wonderful performances by Clive Owen and Micheal Caine! Finally Clive Owen has got a part he can show what he can do as an actor! I knew he was a good actor,after seeing him in "The croupier", "privateer 2:the darkening" and "Second Sight". He is an actor who is able to show you the changes a character goes through! He is able to give a normal character a very dark side without making it ridiculous! Also in this movie you see development in his character. The way Clive Owen acts is done as realistic possible! When a bomb explodes he is genuinely scared and bothered! It is just fun to see him act! Micheal Caine was a joy to see also! He'd really make me laugh! Children of men is a good movie!
