The process of watching "Four Lions" is very relaxed and happy, and the jokes make you lean back and forth. In this film, the British give full play to their cynical and sarcastic talents, and many scenes make you laugh. The humor of words is what the British are good at, and they are all made fun of by the film. One of the episodes is even more hilarious. In the movie, Barry asked several other terrorists to keep shaking their heads when they went out, saying that this was an anti-police surveillance measure, because the photos taken by constantly shaking their heads would be blurred, making it impossible for the police to identify them. Another person retorted, saying that there is no camera at all for surveillance now, and there will be no ghosts when using photography. There are a lot of similar plots, hehe, when the people in the play say it seriously, it's really cola.
In the film, the stupidity and stubbornness of the four British Muslim men claiming to be four lions is initially sympathetic, making you forget that they are terrorists who want to be human bombs, making you feel that they are just themselves neighbors. They have different personalities, their own preferences, and their own weaknesses. So, you can't hate them, they just seem to be serious about doing one thing. However, by the second half of the film, the story gets brutal. When they start to act, step by step toward their goal; when their goal is a group of innocent citizens; when you know that they are trying to gamble on other people's lives and want to change other people's minds, when a fresh line You only realize how cruel it all is when your life dies in front of you.
In the end, all four of the lions died, in all sorts of hilarious and ridiculous ways, but the audience couldn't laugh, after all, it's not a comedy, it's a tragedy. It's just that the director interprets this tragedy in a dark humorous way, making you giggle while enduring the condemnation of your conscience. Although these four men want to show their courage and pursue their own values, they want to sacrifice their lives to declare their demands to the world, which seems very tragic, but it is actually very absurd. In fact, from the sublime to the funny, it is often a step away. It is not God's will to kidnap the beliefs of others with one's own life or the lives of others. Besides, who is qualified to speak and act on behalf of God? What God wants to do, he will do directly to man, without imitating the hands of others. Various behaviors that have appeared in history tell us that interfering in the lives of others in the name of God, and contempt for one's own life and the lives of others, must be blasphemy to God.
