Children of Men is...

...one of the best reviewed films of 2006.

...possibly the finest science fiction movie ever made (ok, probably not but it's up there).

...a strange, beautiful, nightmarish amalgamation of The Pianst and Brazil.

...a film filled with so many little details and vivid moments it probably requires five viewings to take them all in.

...a flippin' masterpiece of modern filmmaking.

...so incredibly, unbelievably good that when I got home tonight I felt the need to geek out and publish a pretentious post that doesn't do the movie justice.

Go see this thing and prepare to have your ass handed to you.
