Children Of Men / USA/UK / 2006

Stepping out of the cinema into Kingsland High Street at rush hour, I wasn’t quite sure if the film had actually ended. This is a grippingly real, OTT vision of London’s dystopian future, perfectly cast and, as always with Cuaron, wonderfully inventive and stylishly directed. It’s a little overblown at times (any hint of religious parable is always accompanied by a blast of heavenly choir) and there are a few unconvincing directional shifts, but this is quite simply the most riveting film of the year. My eyes actually started to hurt from not blinking.
