Terrorism a target for satire? 4 Lions

In May, 4 lions, created and directed by the legend that is Chris Morris will be released in british cinemas. The story of British home grown teroorist on a plan to commit a terrorist act. some people have argued that the film is insensitive, considering the recent terroris activity over the last few years.

I think it looks great and is a Great british response to terroism. Lets just hope they dont put a fatwa out on Chris Morris's head

caution some strong language

Funny! i like this, i think it's great. Terroist themselves should laugh at this.Great British Humour to show how we are not botherd by them.

That's definately a film to add to my watch list. People will always find something to complain about. If they don't like it, they don't have to go and see it. Just don't stop me from going.

For anyone that doesn't know Chris Morris should check out the Brass Eye 2001 Special 'Peadogeddon'. Sadly, I don't think the censors would allow it today because like terrorism, it's a sensitive subject for some. But it's on Youtube.

I would also reccomend watching the Brass Eye "Cake" video and the "Good" AIDs "Bad" AIDs clips, very funny.

That's just taking the urine!

Looks funny though. i just showed it to the Muslim fella sitting next to me and he was in stitches. Saying that, I went to Uni with the Tipton Taliban...

Now that's terrorism!
