If you were bored with this movie then you were not paying enough attention. The detail put into the story (pay attention to what is happening in the background), film making (unbelievable pre-Gravity and pre-Birdman long takes), and philosophical concepts/allegorical criticism of our present day(watch the bonus features and documentaries on the DVD/BR).

Children of Men, a story and atmosphere so enthralling, that I consider it exemplary to science fiction.

The filming makes this movie worth to watch. There are some exquisite scenes, especially noteworthy is the (seemingly) single-shot scene where the main character has to rescue the pregnant lady from a building where the resistance fighters and immigrants hide and keep her captive. This while the building is surrounded by soldiers and tanks from the UK army. Note: I edited this comment bc i did not agree with my opinion from that time anymore, and I could not delete it fully.

One of the few films I have watched that I actually found boring. Nothing happened that got me into the story also found the acting pretty bad.

So much attentions were put into the details of the film. From the surveillance streets of London with its Orwellian "Please Report Suspicious Activity" poster to the Bexhill of refugee where the unfortunate multiculturals are dumped in to the slums, marking their presence with graffiti. Rel More

It's been eighteen years since the birth of the last human child and civilization is barely hanging on by a thread. Clive Owen and Julianne Moore, members of a violent resistance movement, find themselves escorting the holy grail - a miraculously pregnant woman - through the dregs of a dystopian More

Cuarón demonstrates prime command of his lens and script to pull off a poignant balancing act of raw optimism, cautionary tale, and religious fable. And as with all great art, his story’s content commands its form. Cuarón channels our empathy towards Theo, a pessimistic everyman suddenly thrust More

Wicked. I went in totally blind and what a surprise. Solid concept and so incredibly layered, ***Children of Men*** is a terrifying look at humanity without children (hope) and now living on fear, this leads to even more war and xenophobia.

Most of the characters here are living on instinct, huma More
