I wasn't that impressed with Children of Men, either, Crompsin...so you're not alone.
Pan's Labyrinth, though, is a good choice.
Movies that blew my mind but in a way that made me feel sick for a few days afterwards...
Happiness
The House of Sand and Fog (I bought this book shortly after seeing the movie, but I have yet to take it off the shelf and read it...I just look askance at it and choose something else. lol)
