(2011) dir Joe Cornish w/John Boyega, Luke Treadaway, Jodie Whittaker, Nick Frost [88 min]
One of the most acclaimed genre films of 2011, ATTACK THE BLOCK is a sci-fi flick from the wrong side of the tracks. A gang of n’er-do-well teens witnesses the beginning of an alien invasion that starts (unbelievably) in their South London council block (read: housing project). Together with some unexpected allies, they attempt to prove that these E.T.’s have chosen the wrong earthlings to mess with.
