Plot ... One generation from now, the world has fallen into anarchy on the heels of an infertility defect in the population. The world's youngest citizen has just died at 18, and humankind is facing the likelihood of its own extinction. Set against a backdrop of London torn apart by violence and warring nationalistic sects, CHILDREN OF MEN follows disillusioned bureaucrat Theo as he becomes an unlikely champion of Earth's survival. When the planet's last remaining hope is threatened, this reluctant activist is forced to face his own demons and protect her from certain peril.

Cast ... Clive Owen, Julianne Moore, Michael Caine, Chiwetel Ejiofor

Personal Comments ... this movie has a great look to it. The amazing cinematography puts you right in the middle of the action sequences ... particularly the car chase! The set designs are amazing. There is a fantastic attention to detail. This is a very dark, depressing movie that is very well done. Coupled with some great performances, I highly recommend it.

This is the first movie that is available from Amazon as an HD DVD/DVD combo only. There was no SD DVD product...

Did you rent/buy the combo?

Here in Canada "Children of Men" is available at Rogers Video in SD DVD (the one I rented) and at Rogers Video Direct in SD DVD and HD DVD. I checked Future shop ... they also have both the SD DVD and HD DVD.
