A 6.4? Really? How does a film like Avatar get an 8.1 and this gets a 6.4? Is this a joke?
I'm done with IMDb ratings. All of the voters are unintelligent imbeciles. Now I'll just stick with the message boards, where I can preach how stupid all of you are.
Films are my only friends.
I agree. Although, I think this film should have scored much lower.
sharethis film is an easy 10/10 without even thinking about it.regardless of budget its an incredible movie, but considering the low budget compared to rubbish like avatar and dark night it just show money is not needed to make the perfect movie, money just over shadows the movie with fake effects and awful cgi.attack the block also shows you dont need over priced actors to make a film, these kids performed far better than anyone in dark night,avatar or any so called big budget hollywood nonsense. why anyone thinks it should be less than a 10 nevermind less than 6,its a joke.some people dontappreciate actual quality talent and just go for the big stuntsand celebrities,shame really because films like this never get the recognition they truly deserve

Really enjoyed this comment, made me laugh out loud and read excerpts to my housemates as we watch it.
Just to give my 2 cents (or p's): while some aspects of this film did genuinely impress me (action scenes, camera-work and NICK FROST), the chav protagonists and the implication that their backgrounds justify mugging a woman at knife-point pretty much ruined it.

A 10? really? as good as Godfather, Shawshank Redemption, etc.? REALLY??

what a horrible film this was. 6,7/10? gtfo imdb

I agree. Although, I think the films probably aren't his friends back.
shareI gave it a 3/10 on IMDB.
One point for being a completed film production.
One point for generosity.
Not sure what the other point was for...
I gave it a 4/10.
shareOnly imbeciles could say that Avatar is two notches above Attack the Block. Regardless of whether it suited you or not, Attack the Block has loads of creative integrity. This and Tucker and Dale vs Evil are the only films I've seen that have had such a great blend of horror, comedy, and a well crafted social message. TADVE has a 7.6. Attack the Block should have a score somewhere in the range. But no, IMDb voters can't understand British accents and incubating horror. They just want blood and tits on screen and maybe some helicopters flying in the sunset and a close up of a slow motion American flag waving. Therefore this film and other brilliant films find themselves off the list.
But on the other end, the IMDb ratings and the top 250 mean literally nothing. Any list that claims Shawshank Redemption, The Dark Knight, Inception, and City of God are superior to Casablanca is null and void.
Films are my only friends.
I think you're taking this too far.
You seem too fixated on what other people think.
Ratings are just that, a loose conglomeration of opinions.
You watch a movie, and you decide whether you enjoy it or not, and THAT is what really matters.
Saying
"Any list that claims Shawshank Redemption, The Dark Knight, Inception, and City of God are superior to Casablanca is null and void." would be saying Casablanca SHOULD be considered the best movie of all times by every single person that visits IMDB, just because you say so?
Unless of course, you're God and everybody is supposed to think exactly like you do.
But you ain't God, innit?
APsychedelic @ Agree :)
shareI'd say that, if you remove the historichal resonance of Casablanca, both City of God and The Dark Knight are exactly in the same league than Casablanca is. True classics, masterpieces of filmmaking. Shawshank and Inception are one step lower, for granted, still great films.

So youve never seen Shaun of the dead then? Thats the perfect balance of sci-fi and romance. You could even say romance (Between shaun and ed)
shareI agree. Waste of time with tons of dumb humor.
sharethis movie wasn't that great.. it doesnt even deserve to be compared with avatar.

For the type movie it was it is phenomenal. It's entertaining. And a lot more was done with a lot less money than avatar.

It currently has 6.8 which I'd say is pretty spot on. It's a reasonably entertaining diversion, but it's also hugely flawed and far from being anything hugely special.
6.8 is basically a 7/10 score which is what I rated the film.
Avatar is over-rated but it's also a completely solid bit of mindless entertainment and in all honestly, I'd say it's quite easily two notches above Attack the Block.
Art is a lie that tells the truth.share

Surely instead of comparing it to Avatar, you should instead compare it to La Haine? Or something along those lines, which does have a good score. Because when compared to La Haine with an 8.1 I think it is a fair rating.
shareAre you kidding? Comparing Attack the Block to La Haine?
It would be more comparable to Gremlins with South London estate kids as te protagonists.

I agree. I gave it a 4 and I was being generous. What crap.
Marion Cotillard, Keira Knightley and Alizee are the most beautiful women on Earth.
What makes this crap?
Films are my only friends.
I am American and I love this movie. I think it is a terrifying, well crafted movie with protagonist that are hard to root for but you still manage to, and really good performance from the actor playing Moses.
shareI really enjoyed this movie, thought it was original, tightly plotted, genuinely funny and had a real depth of social commentary and character development. I gave it an 8!
I don't get why some people are being so racist:
