I can't think of anything less funny than terrorists or terrorism, except maybe Hitler, so beautifully satirized in "The Producers." While this isn't quite on that level, this is a pretty funny comedy about four Jihad losers in Britain trying to plant a bomb somewhere that will make a statement. You just know by watching them try to make a video that they have no chance of pulling anything off. They agree on nothing and their stupidity knows no bounds.
I actually watched this film because I am a fan of Benedict Cumberbatch. Well, he is in it, but it's a tiny part at the end of the film.
These guys can't decide where to strike - a mosque, the Internet, or where. After some disastrous tryouts, they decide on the London marathon. Given recent events, that was an interesting choice in 2010. Apparently that marathon is run in costume, or at least some people run it in costume, and since these guys have bombs under the costumes, they are huge, cumbersome things no one could ever really run in.
Seeing these morons as buffoons doesn't help much, but the characters are extremely funny. It ends on a somewhat shocking note.
