Thoughts Before Viewing: Been hearing a lot about this movie since early this year when it played (and was a hit) at Sundance. I’m very excited to finally get a chance to check it out.


Thoughts After Viewing: For the second year in a row, my favorite comedy of the year comes from overseas. Last year it was IN THE LOOP and this year it’s FOUR LIONS (I doubt there’s anything coming out in the next 6 weeks to change that). They took a subject matter that most people don’t find any humor in and made it laugh out loud funny. It’s not very often we get smart edgy comedies so if the movie is playing anywhere near you, do yourself a favor and go out and see this movie.


Movie Total: 454
