It was rather good, yes. Definitely one of the better ones. I always like dystopian movies, though. Just watched the Book of Eli on Saturday and it was surprisingly good as well, if a little 'hollywood'. But, Children of Men was had a much more realistic, 'british' style and not much sugar coating; indeed well worth watching.
Too bad there aren't that many good scifi/dystopian films released yearly. Last week I watched Pandorum and Reeker and kinda felt like scraping the bottom of the barrel for Scifi needs although both were ultimately OK. I wouldn't mind watching a good scifi/horror/dystopy every once a week but there just aren't enough :-(
