In the personal Oscars I hold in my heart I have nominated John Boyega for Best Actor in a Motion Picture that I saw on a summer day by myself, in a small theater, and I brought a sandwich. Attack the Block isn’t perfect or anything but it is nominated because it is a movie I actually wanted to see and enjoyed seeing and thought about later, which is pretty much more than you can say for. Well, I don’t want to say everything. But. It does that wonderful thing that science-fiction-action can do, sometimes, which is get you on the line while also jabbing at issues of race and class and honor. And fear. Anyway if you’re mad about The Bitchy Oscars, maybe instead of being mad you could rent this and see how you like it. I bet you’ll have fun.
Attack the Block fucking rules and it’s fun and funny and even though I had no trouble with the British accents when I saw it in the theater I can reassure the worried that the DVD has English subtitles.
