Children of Men: 9/10
This movie about Clive Owens protecting a pregnant woman in a world where children aren't able to be conceived surprised me. It had an Oscar nomination which usually turns off a movie for me because they tend to be way over-dramatic and very long. This movie however was very nicely paced, didn't try to pack too much into the plot and had good acting.
Clive Owens shows again he can play a brooding man who has to save someone (see Shoot 'Em Up). Michael Caine has the comedic part in this film and it is worth renting to see him.
