Film opening analysis; Children of Men;

During our last lesson we watched 3 film openings, these films were, Children of men, Memento and History of Violence.
Children of Men;
At the start of the film it shows the opening credits while having the voice of a news reporter announcing breaking news in the background. The news reader is saying about how that the youngest person living had died, this person was 18 years of age. From  hearing this news it makes the audience ask questions such as, why has no one in the world had a baby for 18 years? and what will happen if no one else has a baby? These questions are known as Enigmas. Just before the end of the opening 5 minutes of the film there is an explosion, this makes you want to watch on.
