    The possibilty of this fictional movie becoming a reality makes it that much more disturbing. The filming method was unique and made me feel like I was running for my life with the characters. It starts out kind of slow but the last fifteen minutes or so of the movie were incredibly moving- how after eighteen years without a single baby being born, the cry of a newborn child was powerful enough to stop a war.

    is so love this movie! it's one of my favorites of all time! as n! no doubt it really depicted what will heppen in the near future it's so sad but it's so true. it's one of those movies that i won't mind watching again and again. and i already convinced a lot of people i know to see the moive... this doesn't only touch hearts but it opens minds to disappointing realities of the near future, the saddest part was the scene where they hid in the classrooms... i almost burst into tears when it was barren and it looked so old... the most horrifying part of the future is to lose 'our future' which is the children/kids... so sad but so real... :)

    Maybe it was my mood, but I couldn't make it through. I watched the first part and shut it off. Never got back to it.

    i thought it was good, but kind of confusing. I thought it was a believable portrayal of what the future could be.

    Anybody see the nod to Pink Floyd? This was a very good movie. If you hate reality and violence then skip this one as you'll not be able to handle it.
