The Interview (II) (2014)
7/10
The Hate us Cause they Ain't US!!
25 December 2014
The Interview is not a movie ever meant to take itself seriously. A world where a journalist wants to do real news stories. The movie is over of the top, and completely implausible. None the less, the movie is fun, as it just makes fun of itself and North Korea.

Seth Rogen directs a pretty straight forward film about the US and its need for fluffy news and non-news news broadcaster. James Franco takes on the role of self adsorbed celebrity TV personality trying to placate his best friend with the biggest news interview of the 21st century.

Enter in celebrity cameos showing disdain for Dave Skylark and his shotty news show. The CIA wants to try to dictate the outcome with a change of leadership convince the dynamic duo to assassinate Kim Jong Un. The movie has its over the top moments, and some parts can be slow but it is a movie to laugh at and with it.

Everybody has something that chews them up and, for me, that thing was always loneliness. The cinema has the power to make you not feel lonely, even when you are. Tom Hanks
