Children Of Men - Although we've come to the end of the road, still I can't let go....

Now I love Dystopian futures. Something to look forward to in this ever increasing likely society that we live in. The uprising it fuels I mean. But this film is just so depressing and grim and grey. It doesn't inspire anything in me. That is not to say that it is not a great movie though. Superbly acted and some stand out scenes and genuine shocks. It's just the general kind of complete dourness of it all. If it wasn't for Julianne (I've always liked her) Moore I may well have slit my wrists. But that's the message not the movie. Watch it.
