Review of Attack the Block (2011) by Phil S — 15 Apr 2015
Attack The Block is like a thug in your face starting shit, but it has a soft spot and doesn't try to be threatening. It's all harmless fun like a music video with cinematic scenes. Best think about it are the aliens.
I think they look awesome but they wouldn't cut it in a straight up horror. They could only work with a movie with this kind of mood and the neon aesthetic. The cast were colorful, too. Serious and not so serious.
They reminded me of leather jacket wearing teens in movies from the 80's like Goonies and Monster Squad. Attack The Block is the black Monster Squad. Both are awesome movies.
