The movie Four Lions premieres at the Sundance Film Festival this weekend. Forget Iron Man 2, Kick Ass and Alice In Wonderland, this is my most anticipated movie of the year. Written and directed by the incomparable Chris Morris, creator of Brass Eye and Jam, this movie is a comedy about four British jihadists planning an act of terrorism. Years of research has taken anecdotes from real life and twisted them into this farcical narrative. Basically we're talking Spinal Tap meets The Hamburg Cell.

I can't wait. Someone burn me a DVD or something. Go on, or I'll blow you up.
