Is there a movie equal to Children of Men in terms of cinematography and atmosphere?

Seriously. Just finished watching it again after 10 years and it is absolutely perfect on a technical level. The car scene. The battle in the slum. There hasn't been anything like it since.

Not just movies, but even some TV series have that level of immersion.

You're all wrong

ofc they are because they name movies that take place in space and all the other shit, it's not like children of men at all.

Since

what do ya mean, that's literally the only movie that is remotely like it. More war and action scenes but there are still quieter parts that live off atmosphere.

There's nothing random about my selections, what's random is what you're striking because you had no thought process behind your comment. 

 

 

District 9, Elysium and Chappie all share the near identical atmosphere, location and cinematography yet you struck Elysium and Chappie.... Oblivion and Edge of Tomorrow are not far off from them and share a lot of visual thematics with Children of Men. Babylon A.D. Focuses on a similar world state and narrative to a degree which is just as gritty. Blade Runner 2049 and Ghost in the Shell share a near parallel future world, art direction and android related theme yet you struck Ghost in the Shell... The Riddick movies have a very like minded cinematography style and look with all the aforementioned titles... Interstellar simply has excellent cinematography. 

 

You're arbitrary as fuck and have no idea what you're saying.
