Reminded me of
Deewar, the classic Bollywood film about two siblings, one who becomes a cop and the other who becomes a crook.
That aside, I thought Britz was an ok thriller and Riz Ahmed was very good as the righteous, moralistic brother, although the more religious Muslims watching this would be less likely to take to his character, as he sleeps with a white girl and is ready to denounce his own ilk, even if they are terrorists. He's what some would call a 'coconut.'
In places, it was certainly far-fetched and with better writing, it could have been developed with more depth. I get the feeling that there was more to Nasima's motivations than met the eye. Perhaps, because of her religion and skin colour, she got bullied endlessly as a youngster and being victimized by society pushed her to the point where she couldn't take any more. Unfortunately, this was glossed over and just simply showed her immediately becoming a terrorist.
Any thoughts?
