  • Story:
    Four Lions tells the story of a group of British jihadists who push their abstract dreams of glory to the breaking point. As the wheels fly off, and their competing ideologies clash, what emerges is an emotionally engaging (and entirely plausible) farce. In a storm of razor-sharp verbal jousting and large-scale set pieces, Four Lions is a comic tour de force; it shows that-while terrorism is about ideology-it can also be about idiots.

TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

According to Christopher Morris, Barry, the Jihadist group leader, was based on a former BNP member who in an attempt to out-knowledge the Asian youths he regularly assaulted, studied the Qur'an and as a result "accidentally converted himself" and became a Muslim.

The film had its world premiere at Sundance on January 23rd, 2010. The same day, the UK "terror threat" level was raised to "severe" due to non-specific "chatter".

Following Omar's bomb speech in his living room, you can hear Waj shout "fuck mini babybels". According to an interview with Kayvan Novak, this was completely improvised.

Look for "If you're reading this, find out what's wrong with you" in the small printed credits. As of October 2010, the poster is available in high resolution on the official UK website.

On the UK DVD, wait in the deleted scenes menu until the seagull appears and then press enter. This will take you to a further menu featuring more bonus materials.

Popular Dialogues

"Barry: [car breaks down] Fuck, Fuck, fuck it! Omar: Did you fix this then, Barry? Barry: Yes, I fixed it! Omar: Did ya? Barry: It's the parts... they're Jewish. Omar: What parts in a car are Jewish? [pause] Omar: Hmm? Fessal: Spark plugs. Barry: Spark plugs! Jews invented spark plugs to control global traffic."

"Waj: Rubber dinghy rapids bro."
