BEST MOVIE OF THE YEAR SO FAR!
Attack The Block is a great movie. While it does have some good role models there is some violence. Like in one scene we see a face ripped up and another scene when one of the aliens eat a neck. And another when one of the aliens beherad a person. And there is some pot-smoking., but it is only at least 50 seconds of it. Great movie. :D

The truth
This is my favorite movie but really lots of suggestive themes. The violence is gory and bloody and the language is horrible more than 70 uses of the word f**k and lots of use of ni**er. the drugs are bad to lots of people smoke weed and there is a room full of weed. But there is great role models and positive messages.

Attack the Block is action-packed fun for mature teens and up.
Violence: 4/5 Constant threat, including a mugging. People are attacked brutally by aliens, and we see the aftermaths (severed heads, mangled bodies, blood sprays). Aliens are killed but this isn't horribly graphic (think PG-13 level). Language: 4/5 Many uses of f*ck and it's derivatives by kids, teens, and adults. As well as uses of sh*t and milder terms. Drug Use: 3/5 Teens smoke weed and are around weed in many scenes. One character has a "weed room". Total Explicit Content: 11/15 My Rating: 15+ for bloody violence, language, and drug material.

I love this movie. Its great! I was surprised when i saw the rating. I find it ridiculous to not let a 16 year old watch this. I saw it when I was 12 with my dad and my sis and it was great we all liked it.

A Movie I'll See When I'm Older
I'm a huge fan of sci-fi, but I'll see this when I'm older.
