It's a pretty good steelbook with an exceptional back cover. The front cover, on the other hand, is kind of standard so it leaves something to be desired. Altogether, if you're a fan of the film you won't be disappointed.
Nice looking steelbook with good sci-fi movie with Clive Owen.
Children of Men - Universal 100th Anniversary Steelbook Edition is one seriously good film, and the steelbook that comes with it is really nice too. It's presented in landscape, and features some really detailed images on the front. The back and inside images could be better but overall it's a great addition to any steelbook collection.
While I loved the movie, I strongly suggest you read the book as well. There are differences between the two and, of course, verbal descriptions of characters' thoughts are often hard to reproduce on screen. Almost always, sacrifices must be made in the script - and this film is no exception. However, I DO feel the movie stays true to the INTENT and MESSAGE of the book and it is quite a wonderful film.
