Nice to see John Boyega get the Rising Star award but it's perhaps a year or two too late. He was a "rising star" in Attack The Block, now he's a "Star" isn't he?

  You have to remember that nobody other than us film buffs even saw Attack The Block. Star Wars was his "breakout" role, so I can understand why he'd get the gong for it.
  
  I just hope he can continue to capitalise on his new high profile.
