Review: Four Lions (2010) - Rating: 4/5

Like a movie version of Family Guy, with the 'watch-over-again' factor of a recent Paul Greengrass movie. Further extended: irresistibly amusing with black humour in parts, not always consistent; and like 'United 93' and 'Green Zone', the movie has a clear message, with a scathing critique, but not one that would compel you to repeat viewings.

Very daring, ballsy, brave and bold - and credit has to be given for that. A relatively flat first half, compared to an effervescent second with an ironic climax.
