Movie Pick: The Day Shall Come

The Day Shall Come is two-handed satire about a two-bit open-air preacher (Marchánt Davis) from Miami who becomes the target of the FBI when Middle Eastern terrorists offer to fund his revolution. Anna Kendrick plays the agent who resorts to absurd ruses to entrap the wannabe religious leader. Chris Morris (director of the boldly entertaining terrorist comedy Four Lions) helms a pleasantly impudent script by Morris and Jesse Armstrong.
