Finally made the effort to check out 'Children of Men', and I'm more then happy I did.
I know awards really dont mean shit. But how it didn't even get nominated for best film (oscars), is beyond me. Fuckin Pisses me off.
The whole escape from the uprising scene was incredibly intense. When they were carrying the baby out of the dismanteled building past the soldiers and everything/everyone went silent. That was a thing of beauty.
Anywho, It's certainly the best film I've seen in a while.
A+

Yeah, Children of Men is one of my favorite movies. The long-shot uncut sequences were amazing, made you hold your breath, and that scene with the mother holding her baby as she's walking past those refugees and soldiers jerk those tears right out of me every time. Awards ceremonies are subject to favoritism and red tape and all of that, but it can only be a positive thing when a movie gets a nod at the academy. Children Of Men got robbed at the Oscars. I was disappointed it didn't get the recognition I felt it deserved.

a buddy of mine brought me his laptop, which had several movies on it. I did a keanu reeves recap -- watched the matrix 1 and 2, constantine, and johnny mnemonic. and I realized somethign. besides reeves is a pretty bad actor, he also has the same tshirt and trenchcoat look in all of them.
