Attack The Block 'Inner City vs Outer Space'SynopsisTrainee nurse Sam is walking home to her flat in a scary South London tower block when she’s robbed by a gang of masked, hooded youths. She’s saved when the gang are distracted by a bright meteorite, which falls from the sky and hits a nearby parked car. Sam flees, just before the gang are attacked by a small alien creature that leaps from the wreckage. The gang chase the creature and kill it, dragging its ghoulish carcass to the top of the block, with they treat as their territory. While Sam and the police hunt for the gang, a second wave of meteors fall. Confident of victory against such feeble invaders, the gang grab weapons, mount bikes and mopeds, and set out to defend their turf. But this time the creatures are bigger. Much bigger. Savage, shadowy and bestial, they are hunting their fallen comrade and nothing will stand in their way. THE ESTATE IS ABOUT TO BECOME A BATTLEGROUND. And the bunch of no-hope kids who just attacked Sam are about to become her, and the block’s, only hope.

My favourite line from the trailer was ""Right now, I feel like going home, lockin' my door and playing FIFA." Awesome!

Looks tight. Don't know how I feel about the British accents though. Nothing wrong with it, but it might distract me from picking up on a couple jokes, but other than that, looks tight.

Do you know when the US release date is? Or is it just UK?
It looks like one of those movies that could turn out to be really awesome or really crappy. Hard to tell. I'd check the tomatometer before I see it.

Not sure about the American viewing. I guess it'll be like Shaun of the Dead, see how well it does here and then bring it out elsewhere.

Watched and liked! Hopefully you'll (away from the UK) get the chance to watch it.
