2. Moses Vs. the Monsters in 'Attack the Block'
Sony
Not enough people have seen this film: one of the coolest, funniest sci-fi action movies in years. Juvenile delinquents from the London projects find themselves at ground zero of an alien invasion, and need to save a world that doesn't look out for them, armed with whatever fireworks and gasoline-filled Super Soakers they can find. Moses, the gang's stone-face leader steps up in the film's finale -- a chase sequence so cool, it should win an MTV Music Video award. Every teenage boy wants to be a kickass action star -- 'Attack the Block' lets these kids live the fantasy.
