Children of Men is set as a dystopian fiction film with a troupe of brilliant artists , 'Claine' , 'Moore' & 'Owen'.The world is set in 2027 , United Kingdom ,where the world is seeing infertility as a major concern , no human child born in last 18 years.
The world is collapsing with the exception UK as the only sane state , seeing millions of refugees take shelter. As an aftermath it has developed into a military police confinement.
Theo played by Clive Owen embarks on a journey to fetch travel permits for a young refugee girl named Kee for a substantial money.
Theo is flummoxed when he comes to know , Kee is pregnant , the glimmer of hope for mankind.
This forms the backdrop of the film , with Theo's objective to transport Kee to safety , and reach the 'Human Project' team working towards curing human infertility.
Some of the sequences in the movie had me boggled , specifically the 'Single Shot' sequences in extremely complex action scenes : -
- Theo searches for Kee in abandoned building where cross-firing is crescendo ( 454 sec)
- Kee gives birth to a child (200 sec )
- Theo , Kee & the baby walk past astonished soldiers of war.
The performances are exemplary , screenplay keeps the audience hooked , & the climax bowls you over.
No wonder , IMDB rates it amongst the best 250 flicks.
Rating : 4.0/5.0
