Four Lions

Four Lions

2010

"Boundary-pushing British comedian Chris Morris (The IT Crowd, The Day Today) has mounted many memorable media hoaxes in his quest to expose and explode public gullibility. Here he sets out to shatter the fear-mongering mythology of the lethally focused jihadist: he’s made a taboo-busting comedy about four terrorists who are complete dorks. Cuttingly articulate, Four Lions hones its insults with dazzling velocity and nerve." (New Zealand International Film Festival 2010)

Press Reviews

  • Empire (UK)

    Guaranteed to offend a lot of folks across the political and belief spectrum, but consistently funny and horribly to the point.

  • Hollywood Reporter

    A delirious satire of British jihadists.

  • Urban Cinefile (Australia)

    The film has mined a treasure trove of stupidity in the Jihad as waged by men who are committee. Or rather, who should be committed, on the grounds of inanity

  • Variety (USA)

    An audacious premise gets dangerously unstable execution in Four Lions.
