'Transformers' And Much More: 2011's 5 Best Alien Invasion Movies

From battles in La and Chicago to children battling against otherworldly risks, 2011 was an memorable year for fighting opponents from past the stars. Keep reading through for the top 5 favorite alien invasion movies of the season! 5. "Fight LaInch Though not quite among my personal favorite movies of the season, even I can not deny the awesome imagery from the initial waves of invasion in "Fight La.Inch The floor-level action puts you within the grungy trenches of the alien assault on which would normally be considered a sunny day in California. If you're able to forgive a skinny plot, the visual assault you'll weather in "Fight LA" may be worth the rental fee. 4. "Paul" Most aliens arrive on the planet with dying-sun rays within their hands and universal domination within their hearts. Paul, however, goes about his business having a joint in the mouth and Doritos in the belly. Thinking about how these invasions normally go, "Paul" was refreshingly light on take-me-to-your-leader danger and high on toke-with-me-and-your-leader humor. 3. "Transformers: Dark from the Moon" Go forward towards the final hour of Michael Bay's latest "Transformers" movie, and you will end up knee-deep within the most balls-out crazy action flick of the season. When Shockwave and also the Decepticons descend upon downtown Chicago, absolute madness develops. Autobots are actually pulled out to the roads and performed. Optimus Prime shoots his opponents hard at pointblank range. He rips heads off. He rips heads off! Yeah, it's pretty awesome. 2. "Super 8" It's less the appearance of the mysterious extraterrestrial that puts "Super 8" about this list it is the kids hanging round the central mystery. Joel Courtney, Riley Griffiths and Ryan Lee are perfect within their large-screen breakout roles, and let us not disregard the moving performance shipped by future Oscar champion Elle Fanning. Coupled with a effective nostalgia kick of pure Spielbergia, J.J. Abrams' sci-fi throwback flick remains among 2011's best popular culture efforts. 1. "Attack the Block" From phenomenal creature design to some wonderfully unique setting for any sci-fi film, Joe Cornish's directorial debut has everything you may request for from the hard R-ranked action comedy. Sporting the "Goonies" elements "Super 8" takes up very well spread with "Alien"-inspired action and scares permanently measure, "Attack the Block" is not only the finest alien invasion movie of 2011 it's among the best movies of the season, period.
