Review of Four Lions (2010) by Aaron N — 26 Mar 2011
Waj: We'll blow something up.
Omar: What we gonna blow up Waj?
Waj: Internet.
It is films like these that I want to instantly share with people. Four Lions is such a funny, dark, and offbeat satire that it deserves to be seen by more people, especially those wanting to be treated by something original, even if it treads along a seemingly non-funny premise. To pitch this as high concept to those unfamiliar: Four Lions is what would happen if you crossed The Three Stooges with the subject of radical Muslim suicide bombers, and then filmed the material as if it was This is Spinal Tap. You may have done a double take after seeing the phrase "radical Muslim suicide bombers," but I can assure you, this film is a hilarious and wickedly satirical take on could be easily seen as a controversial topic.
