Attack the Block is a UK sci-fi alien invasion movie that I believe was done on a budget with many young actors that have (to my knowledge) no world-wide recognition. It was good. It's wasn't amazing or great, but it was good. And you know what? It was better than Skyline and it was better than Battle Los Angeles.
It had it's over the top moments, but it had a lot of grounded and realistic moments as well. Nothing was particularly perfected in anything that was done, but nothing was poorly done either. It wasn't very original in concept but nothing felt annoyingly cliche; it had enough style to make even recycled elements fresh.
Although I probably won't be itching to see it again, it was enjoyable enough to watch once, and engaging enough to see it through to the end.
