Four Lions is a dark satire about religious extremism is Britain. The characters are all Muslim, and they plan to commit atrocities “for” Islam, but this is all more incidental than anything else. Director/Co-writer Chris Morris is less concerned with religion as a concept, as he is in the selfishness and stupidity of those who are willing abuse it in order to kill people.

We follow a radicalized, but otherwise mild-mannered family man named Omar (Riz Ahmed) and his dim-witted best friend Faisal (Adeel Akhtar) as they eagerly conspire to terrorize London. They are part of a struggling terrorist cell along with the childishly naive Hassan (Arsher Ali) and the bully/de facto leader Barry (Nigel Lindsay). Omar and Faisal are sent to the Middle East to legitimize their cell by training with insurgents in the field, but after a disastrous case of overconfidence involving a rocket, the two return home in disgrace. Determined to save face, Omar tells his other comrades that, yes, they were given the go-ahead to plan an attack, and should start right away. The group of Londoners then uses everything at its disposal, including “trained” ravens, obnoxious mascot costumes, and each other’s foolishness to send their clear, devastating message… so should they bomb a drug store or a mosque?

These guys are all fools, and we are never lead to believe anything else. However, there is a strange dignity that Morris gives through the framing of his characters, particularly Omar. The man is trying to blow up a bunch of innocent people, but we still get little moments of his family life, like playfully teasing his wife or attempting to frame his failures in the most heroic light possible as a bedtime story for his kid. He just wants to be worth something.

Four Lions is critical of a particular interpretation of Islam, never the religion itself. By focusing the humor directly onto Omar and his men (even the legitimate terrorists look like Navy Seals compared to them), Morris is able to provide an effective satire of an all-too-relevant issue while never being too cruel when choosing the butt of his jokes. Well worth the 97min runtime.

Riz Ahmed has had a fascinating string of roles in the past several years, with highlights including a seedy car crash journalist in Nightcrawler, and an Imperial pilot turned tortured defector in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. With Sound of Metal, Ahmed now gets his first Oscar nod for portraying Ruben Stone, a hard-rocking metal drummer who begins to lose his hearing. Disabilities in movies and television can be a tricky subject matter to portray, but Sound of Metal manages to tell a deeply human story in a respectful and even immersive way.

Ruben tours the country in a beat-up, old RV, as part of a metal duo with his singer girlfriend Lou (Olivia Cooke). The morning after a usual, fiercely loud show, Ruben realizes that he can hear almost nothing. Without telling Lou about his condition, he immediately gets examined, and is told that he only has 20% of his hearing left. What hearing he had, the doctor (Tom Kemp) explains, cannot be regained, and he must preserve what he has left at all costs. Ruben stubbornly plays another gig that night, but is disastrously unable to follow along with Lou, and his condition is revealed. Against Ruben’s wishes, Lou checks her boyfriend into a home for people learning to transition into living with deafness, run by the no-nonsense but deeply compassionate Joe (Paul Raci). Lou returns to live with her father until Ruben can adjust, but he is determined to get money by any means in order to pay for a cochlear implant and return to Lou and metal.
As opposed to a lot of media that will simply tell you about a character’s condition and never actually depicts what the character experiences, Sound of Metal opts to let us hear scenes from Ruben’s POV. The viewer experiences deeply softened audio when Ruben first suffers hearing loss, and eventually dead silence when he completely loses it. Consequently, much of the film is in sign language with subtitles. We become just as jarred by the change in sound as Ruben is: how often does movie audio become muffled? With Oscar nominations for Ahmed and Raci’s performances, as well as for Best Picture, Screenplay, Editing, and Sound, Sound of Metal is a tour de force that is well worth the 2 hour runtime.
