Attack the Block- aka charvas vs. aliens. Kind of cool aliens but uninteresting film

The aliens were the worst part of it.  Crappiest CGI I've ever seen in a movie.  They would have done better with puppets.

I don't feel like it looked like one of the worst movies of the year.

It wasn't. It was a run-of-the-mill dumb action flick.

Last night I saw a slightly better, but still pretty dumb action flick. XXX. It could rise to B- on the strength of the stunts.

Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

He does have three "Hero of the Soviet Union awards", on him.  They are shaped like stars.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
