CHILDREN OF MEN
Now I was just curious as to how this interesting concept would be depicted. I mean.. cause it’s a brilliant idea for a story to have a world where no woman are capable of giving birth anymore.
But then I realize that Hollywood always loves to make future seems so… chaotic. Hence, “Waterworld, “Terminator trilogy”, “Blade Runner”.
The future as it is seen in this film ‘Children of Men’ is too.. messy.
I should’ve known better than to see a film that is directed by Alfonso Quaron. He’s the guy behind ‘Y Tu Mama Tambien’ which I think is nothing but a film that just glorifies sexual escapades.
he’s also the director of ‘Harry Potter: the prisoner of Azkaban’, which I think is the only awful version of the installments of Harry Potter franchise, which I usually admire.
Great actors like Michael Caine, Julianne Moore, and Clive Owen failed to compensate for the mess that this film has already gotten itself into.
The only good observation I can make is by observing that very interesting concept again, which I have said before…
of how mankind would be so corrupt that they could end up destroying each other.. to the point that one hope is needed to restore the situation, one hope in a form of the only baby around,
but even that can be taken advantage of for all the wrong purpose, which leads us back to the corrupt nature of mankind.
