Flixster: 74%

Synopsis:
A fast, funny, frightening action adventure movie that pits a teen gang against an invasion of savage alien monsters. It turns a London housing estate into a sci-fi playground. A tower block into a fortress under siege. And teenage street kids into heroes. It's inner city versus outer space.

Review:
This is the film that District 9 should have been. Aliens land on earth, in a poor area & reek havoc. Revolutionary CGI on this one on the aliens themselves. Not your average humanoids. These are animalistic, hairy, toothy beast looking to chomp down on anything. Cast of new, untested teen aged & child stars that do a really good job for being new to the big screen. Nick Frost is a hilarious character in the film as he is in most things. I highly suggest you see this film!
