Sohail joins MI5 in order to do his bit for the country he loves. His sister becomes a terrorist.
I personally thought that the first half was quite good, the actors were all very convincing and worked wonderfully off one another. But as the second half arrived, I was confused as to why Sohail's sister would turn to terrorism all of a sudden...after seeing protests and stuff, as well as her best friend committing suicide..
As a British Muslim, as well as being in my early twenty's I've grown up within an environment were I have been called many things for being simply different, but it wouldn't set me on the path of terrorism...I felt that the script writer and director were either completely stupid or didn't do any research.
Yes, there were certain aspects that made me think; like sex before marriage in a Muslim house...And marrying someone outside your culture...But the jump from 'innocent student to terrorist' was a bit too much...Another stereotype film.
