Jul 17, 2013<i>"Fuck mini Babybells"</i> Christopher Morris has never been afraid of satirizing a sensitive topic and releasing his ideas through comedic feature films, even at the expense of hurting the sensitivity of an entire class or group. <i>Four Lions</i> is one of the funniest films I have ever seen (no exaggeration), with absolutely terrific one liners and situations that border on the absurd, from slapstick to predominantly criticizing the Islamic moral and contrasting it with the mass media manipulation and the governmental incompetence of hypocritical European authorities. Throw some anti consumerist imperialism commentaries and you've got a full hilarious satirical salad! <i>"The report makes crystal clear that the police shot the right man, but, as far as I'm aware, the wrong man exploded."</i> 85/100Edgar C Super Reviewer

Dec 22, 2012"Four Lions" is probably one of the most ridiculous movies produced in the last few years and is well worth a watch if you're looking for something that doesn't take itself seriously in the slightest. It is full of memorable moments and is a great laugh with a truly unique storyline.Tom R Super Reviewer

Aug 07, 2012Two nights before I watched 'Four Lions' I watched 'Peeping Tom' and the night before - 'Rashomon', two excedingly good films, perhaps they are the reason 'Four Lions' left me feeling cold and strangely enough, a feeling I'm not to familiar coming away from films feeling- annoyed at a missed chance (it's like 'Max Payne' again). Don't get me wrong, 'Four Lions' had me laughing at some of it's jokes, but the serious turns its took at the end felt unneeded and quite frankly, desperate, trying to get a reaction from the audience as the main character martyr themselves, main characters that throughout the film I felt no empathy for, so why should I care? 'Four Lions' had what it needed to be good, a new innovative premise and the cast to do it, what it came up with was a cheap anything for laughs (oh wait we're serious now but no we're not?), uneven mess.Cameron S Super Reviewer
