Given my recent neglect of action movies, I felt the need to watch some exploding stuff on a big screen again, so I took the opportunity of a special screening at Passage Neukölln and gave Children of Men, Alfonso Cuarón’s dystopic 2006 classic, a try.

The movie immediately throws you into the action with an exploding store on a bustling London street - if you look closely, you can spot a CGI rendering of The Shard, the now iconic Southwark skyscraper that dominates London’s skyline.
