In the action-comedy The Interview, Dave Skylark (James Franco) and his producer Aaron Rapoport (Seth Rogen) run the popular celebrity tabloid TV show "Skylark Tonight." When they discover that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is a fan of the show, they land an interview with him in an attempt to legitimize themselves as journalists. As Dave and Aaron prepare to travel to Pyongyang, their plans change when the CIA recruits them, perhaps the two least-qualified men imaginable, to assassinate Kim Jong-un.
User Reviews
This movie is honestly terrible. It bored me to death and couldn't not have been a whole lot worse than what it was. I don't understand how it has an 8.3 rating as there was nothing original or remotely funny about much of what was being said or done during the movie. I much prefer a Seth McFarlane or Parker comedy to this. I do believe in free speech and I am glad that this movie was eventually released but I don't understand all the hype behind it nor why it was originally banned as there is nothing interesting at all about it. It should not have gotten any of the press that eventually got attributed to it and it was publicity that was not merited at all.
