To me, this movie is perfection.
One of my all time favorites.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
What a horrible, tasteless, tacky POS! This movie epitomized the mindless drill that millennials have become! This movie is made to be played in the background as you do housework to drown out the sound of the vacuum, that's about all it's good for, or maybe, I couldn't even finish that sentence, that's how mind numbingly BAD this movie is!
Take out the alien part and the sort of low grade scum thugs that roam streets in parts of london is the reality in 2018. Failed city of knife and gun crimes
An entertaining film I thought. One American reviewer said he was glad that there were sub-titles on the version he watched, because he can't understand "British English". Oh dear! I wonder, were they "American" sub-titles? (I have to say that English sub-titles would be very handy when watching many American programmes because much modern American language is not English language at all, just crudely based on it).
There's a reason the experts on rotten tomatoes gave it a 90%. The movie is not about making you think the main characters are angels. It's about showing the humanity of kids, even the punk ones that grow up in a gang culture in a poor area. The realism mixed with the scifi and the superb humor is what makes this such a great movie. There wasn't 10 minutes going by that I wasn't laughing at something. It also wasn't too long and drawn out. The pace was exciting and the music was enjoyable. The personalities of the kids were all unique and the lady was also an interesting mix in that bunch of punks. Yeah they are messed up, but most of them die and you end up just hoping that Moses will turn into a better dude.
