关于此电影

No children. No future. No hope. In the year 2027, eighteen years since the last baby was born, disillusioned Theo (Clive Owen) becomes an unlikely champion of the human race when he is asked by his former lover (Julianne Moore) to escort a young pregnant woman out of the country as quickly as possible. In a thrilling race against time, Theo will risk everything to deliver the miracle the whole world has been waiting for. Co-starring Michael Caine, filmmaker Alfonso Cuaron's Children of Men "Lifts you to the rafters, transporting you with the greatness of its filmmaking. The action is swift, ferocious and spectacularly choreographed." (The New York Times) (Original Title - Children of Men) - 2006 Universal Studios. All Rights Reserved.

评分和评价

This film is so innovative that even with its bleak premise and minimal exposure it has made an impression on those who have seen it. The camera work so many others have mentioned (even spoofed on Robot Chicken) is just one facet of the depth of this film. You really must see it.

Perhaps presented to an alternative to our current, dangerous state of over-population, this film provides a brief, and not particularly imaginative, glimpse of a future in which children are not able to be born, for reasons which are not really made clear in the 3/4 of the movie I could stomach. Enter pregnant girl, plot thickens, guns are taken out indiscriminately, wrongs are righted, and so on. Most of what I learned from this film is that humans can only begin to pretend to be happy when they're in an environment of extremes and have very little patience for subtlety. It's about as subtle as an atom bomb and as deep as a layer of paint. A generous helping of thinly-veiled propaganda and fighting action make it perfect for its intended audience, whoever that should be (not me).

An extrodianary masterpiece. This is the best work i've seen by Alfonso Couron out of four films I saw by him- Gravity, Roma, Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban (which I think I saw) and this one. I thought Roma was intense when it comes to streets going crazy, and yes Gravity is gorgeous, but this is Alfonso Couron's best work out of the three. One of the best films i've ever seen in my entire life and probably one of the greatest films ever made.
