* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: All the gang members have phones, but they're basic phones, not smartphones. A minor point is how they're running low on minutes and texts, so have to be careful how they use them. Makes sense as they come from families with very limited incomes who can't afford smartphones or unlimited plans. At one point, Moses tells Jerome to use his phone to get the word out to everyone about what's going on and get reinforcements.

* DramaticIrony: About halfway through the movie, Brewis and Ron have a chat about the likely threat of the aliens, and conclude they're no big deal because the one they've seen is eyeless (and therefore probably blind), quite small, and was casually beaten to death by a group of teenagers. Of course, by this point, the audience has seen that all the ''other'' aliens are the size of bears, strong enough to rip through metal, and highly capable, hyper-aggressive hunters.
