Review of Four Lions (2010) by Reena S — 30 Jan 2011
Four Lions. A Comedy About Four Muslim Extremists Planning Jihad Against Western Ideals, Their Plan Of Action - Suicide Bombing.
At First Glance, You Wouldn't Assume To Find Four Lions Sitting Amongst The Greatest Satirical Comedies Of The 21st Century. However Four Lions Is Surprisingly Funny. With Amazing Comedic Performances [Notably Kayvan Novak] And An Interesting Screenplay, Four Lions Is More Than Just A 'Terrorist' Film. In This Clever Film, Chris Morris Depicts The Four Jihadists As Normal Everyday People With Feelings And A Conscience, Rather Than Mere Animals, As Depicted In The Media.
Four Lions Is By No Means 'The Best' Black Comedy You Will Ever See. However You Have To Admire Chris Morris' Effort In Making A Film That Will Shock Audiences One Minute and Then Make Them Cry With Laughter The Next. Four Lions Is Definitely A Film Worth Watching.
Xoxo.
