Amazing and original sci-fi film featuring inner city kids as the heroes
This movie blew me away when I first saw it.<br /><br />First off you have no idea what it’s about initially. It starts with Sam played by Jodie Whitaker walking home and being mugged by a group of teens led by Moses played by John Boyega. While taking her belongings a meteor crashes into a car. Inside is a tiny little alien which the kids kill. Later they see more coming down and they think it’s a big game to kill the “Little Gremlins” as they call them. It turns out the second wave of aliens are much bigger and deadlier and chase the teens throughout the movie.<br /><br />The monsters are also really well done. They are big fury black beasts which you can hardly see in the dark except when they open their mouths and their big glowing teeth are exposed.<br /><br />The movie is not your usual sci-fi film either. There’s plenty of comedy as well such as when one of the kids said he made a big mistake chasing the aliens and would rather be home playing FIFA on his Play Station. Or when slacker Brewis played by Luke Treadaway tells his drug dealer Ron played by Nick Frost about how he can’t make enough money to pay rent even though he still lives at home with his parents for free.<br /><br />There’s also social commentary. The kids are all working class, and mostly black from West Indian parents. They live in a big low income housing complex called “The Block” hence the movie’s name. At the end, Moses saves the day and yet gets arrested because they think he’s a thug. Sam tries to explain to the police that Moses was actually the one that saved the entire block, but they don’t listen. To them, he’s just a black criminal. All the block residents start chanting his name because they know the truth that he’s the hero and the police are working on stereotypes about blacks.<br /><br />Finally, there's some blood and gore thrown in there for good measure when the aliens attack people.<br /><br />This is a really amazing movie with a lot of twists, laughs and messages going on.
