Children of Men

This is a movie set in the future (2027) about our global society who is suffering from infertility. It is directed by Alfonso Cuaron of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and Y Tu Mama Tambien fame. Clive Owen is good and Julienne Moore is not in enough. Michael Caine appears to be having fun in his role and I would have liked a little more of his character and a little more depth in his wife's character. Kee and Miriam (Claire-Hope Ashitey and Pam Ferris) were very enjoyable. You must like sci-fi/fantasy to enjoy this but I still give it a weak thumbs up. I have the feeling that the book by P.D. James is better.
