respectabiggle7 's review for:
The Children of Men
by P.D. James
I saw the movie first. The cinematography and filming of the movie was stunningly fantastic! However, there was no solid story... the main character was never really developed enough to be a full-fledged protagonist. You were never sure who the antagonist was. And the story simply ended at a point where nothing had been solved or answered.
I usually don't read books after seeing a movie, but the movie was so disappointing (especially since the theme and the cinematography were promising) that I wanted to find out where the mistake was--in the screenwriters or the author?
So, I read this book and I was satisfied. The movie changed so much, where the book is complete and beautiful.
Great story... a world that is dying and unable to reproduce, then the promise of hope. I would highly commend this book to anyone!
