Summary

For this week's main podcast review, I am joined by Bianca Garner, Josh Parham & Dan Bayer to discuss Alfonso Cuaron's 2006 sci-fi action thriller "Children Of Men." Incredibly detailed, dense and prophetic in its vision of a bleak future where women can no longer bear children, the film has been on people's minds a lot recently due to the spread of the coronavirus. How has the film aged since its original release? What do we think of the film's technical accomplishments? Its performances? Themes? We discuss all of these things and more in our review!
