Episode 063- Four Lions (2010)

Welcome to Reel Britannia-a very British podcast about very British movies ...with just a hint of professionalism. Episode 063 – Four Lions (2010) Our latest episode with Scott and Steven features our thoughts on the hilarious Four Lions from 2010 directed by Chris Morris.   A group of young Muslim men living in Sheffield decide to wage jihad, and they hatch an inept plan to become suicide bombers. Omar (Riz Ahmed) and Waj (Kayvan Novak) have a brief, disastrous run at a Pakistan training camp, while Faisal (Adeel Akhtar) works on an unlikely scheme to train birds to carry bombs. Their ill-conceived plan culminates at the London Marathon with their bumbling attempts to disrupt the event while dressed in outlandish costumes. "The report makes crystal clear that the police shot the right man, but as far as I'm aware, the wrong man exploded. Is that clear?."
