I'd been curious about this British black comedy since I saw the trailers at the Cinema last October, and now it's on Netflix streaming I was able to watch it over the weekend.
This film lived up to all the expectations of a UK indie with backing from Film 4. The subject matter may be distasteful to some, a comedy about a group of young Muslims who try to do something big for the cause. I part wish that it was an unspecified cause the were fighting for, as I believe the film explores any extremist and how the think. The characters are human enough, and some of the likable enough, just "misguided".
One thing I liked was the deadpan delivery of everything. At times the hand held camera look gave it the feel of a fly on the wall documentary. The humour was mostly verbal, but sometimes physical, which is my preference anyway.
Not a must watch, but if you were on the fence, then go ahead and give it a try.
