Synopsis: From the producers of Shaun of the Dead, Attack the Block is a fast, funny, frightening action adventure movie that pits a teen street gang against an invasion of savage alien monsters. It turns a London housing project into a sci-fi battleground, the low-income apartment complex into a fortress under siege. And it turns a crazy mix of tough street kids into a team of kick ass heroes. It’s inner city versus outer space and it’s going to explode.

Review: From the two goobers that brought you fantastic comedy like Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead comes Attack the Block.  In fact, one of those guys is in THIS film, as well.  You may know the other one as Simon Pegg, an actor that has gotten a good amount of exposure thanks to the relaunch of the Star Trek films in which he plays Scotty.  Attack the Block is an urban London look at an alien invasion.  The film is rather deadpan, but hilarious at times.  Its well paced and definately has the action, funny characters and great lines that make this one a fun time.

Interest Range: Sci-Fi, Action/Adventure
