Interesting plot, too bad the movie wasn't very good.

Rating: 1/10 (6 January 2007)

While basic plot of the movie seemed very interesting to me, I have to say that Children of Men was a bad adaptation of a great idea. While I am not a fan of putting art into a movie for art's sake, this movie could have used something other than dark, dreary settings and two faced people. The points that the writer(s) were trying to make may have come across a little easier if I was so depressed. The characters were supposed to be living in desperate times, this we know, but to have a movie plot with no hope and then make settings that add to the hopelessness makes the movie a little hard to stomach. This movie was the worst one I have seen since Girl with a Pearl Earring....and that, if you have seen it, is saying a lot.
