Four Lions

[Jordy]

Just seen something on the news (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8663809.stm) about this, a comedy about terrorists from Northern England. Causing a bit of controversy with the families from people involved in 7/7 and there's calls for boycotts. However I have to admit this seems a very original idea and from what I've seen so far, the reviews are excellent and the trailer's hilarious.

Think I might go see this when it's released tomorrow;

How is this in anyway tied with 7/7, its about blowing the internet up

I think the families of the 7/7 bombings should actually watch the trailer and find that not everything terrorist is the 7/7 bombings

Our 200,000 readership does.You won't need to scavenge for people on here then.

[Misawa]

Giving people useful reviews isn't "scavenging".

[Hiro]

Nobody cares.

Going to see it tomorrow :)

Actually, people do. I read reviews before I ever watch a movie, and generally afterwards too. Misawa is only supplying people with a reliable source for reviews, that want to get the first look into it all. He's not forcing you to click the link >___>

Actually I've become accustomed to reading a thread about a new movie and seeing a handy link to a nice little review. :)

Anyway, saw the trailer for this in the cinema yesterday and I can guarantee I will be going to see it next week. I'm quite confident it will be the funniest film of 2010 (and I haven't read those reviews yet). :P

[Smits]

Cheers fro the reviews misawa.

Yeah, i wanna see this this week, today ifi can get anyone to come. it looks great.

[Misawa]

No problem.

[Black_Apalachi]

On second thoughts, seeing it tomorrow :D

Just got back and it was pretty hilarious! I was laughing out loud from the very first scene all the way through the film. Although I have to agree with the review that said a lot of the funniest stuff was wasted on the trailer, there were other parts which probably matched the trailer's gags. The journey home just consisted of us all trying to remember lines from it and laughing our heads off lol. Still, I do wish I hadn't have watched the trailer before hand (not that I could help it as it was before another film) because I anticipated too much stuff and didn't laugh as much at those parts. Nevertheless, it's definitely a strong contender for funniest film of the year.
