From researching into 'Attack the block' i have learnt that Joe Cornish is not only focusing souly on the story line of aliens invading a block estate in south London, but he has also investigated into the lives of the stereo typical type of teenagers and adults that live there. Joe Conrish appears to be a friendly figure who not only is directing the film but has given the actors and actress's in his film a chance to be noticed by the media.
He has also deliberatly put in a scene of the gang mugging a young lady, which relates back to when he got mugged in London, his home town a few years back, which he talks openly and honestly about.
From learning that the film had only cost 8 million to make and produce, the special effects have been said to be 'Brilliant'. Its a short film which lasts an hour and a half. £1,133,859 was made 2 days in on the 15th may 2011 on 352 cinema screens which is a massive amount for such a low budget film. The advertising was really pushed by using competitions, tv adverts, and posters etc.
