The Interview (Starring James Franco & Seth Rogen) Movie Review 

They should just release this on all formats for free.

IMO franco is the best part of the movie.

Can't wait to see it... My only problem with WTFlick, Is that these reviews are done sometimes by people who "didn't get a chance to see it." Wait, what? Isn't that your job?

Franco was the best part of the movie..the fuck you talking about?

It's absurd the way the word 'terrorist' gets used in American discourse, very Orwellian.

Disagree about James Franco and Anchorman. Will Ferrel plays a cartoon character in Anchorman. James Franco plays a real human being. I always hate when critics get confused because movies try and go in different directions, and it confuses them. Trust me, when you see this movie, and you are NOT an idiot, when this movie takes different turns it will not confuse you.

Sony should release a 112 minute trailer for the movie instead

They definitely did kill him in Team America. But yeah, I'm shocked Sony thought this was a good idea in the first place.

lol why is George R.R.Martin here? and wearing a shitty christmas sweater

These people know how to advertise. This has been the most successful advertisement for a movie ever. Its getting free advertisement all over the world and it will probably be way way way bigger than Titanic. Weather they release this movie now or later, it will probably make a lot of money.

I hope there is a Blu-ray/digital release, I really wanted to see,this

Re assassinations of presidents, you forgot the 2008 movie The Death of a President.

Wow, nice job on spoiling the ending. I love the show but just because you guys were the few to see it, even though Sony shelved it indefinitely, didn't mean it was ok to spoil it. Why even review the movie?

So if this got leaked can I still watch it somewhere? Seriously, I need to see this movie if it's worth caving into terrorist demands over.

This movie doesn't really look like it's worth the terrorist threats

+jarell stodghill "Why people still putting review out for this movie. The general public will not see the movie no time soon." Isn't it obvious?? A.) Because _they_ *did* get to see it, and B.) due to the Streisand Effect, there's now massive interest in the film. Why _wouldn't_ they make a video talking about it since everybody's now curious about it? I mean, Hell, YOU'RE here, aren't you? ;~P

I thought franco was great. he seems most comfortable working with rogen to the point where I think they are literally improvising and goofing off a lot of the time. And 'not buffoonish enough'? did we see the same movie?

I was really curious to see this. The gags in the previews seemed hilarious. The CIA woman was a babe. Now that it's history I'm glad I got to watch you guys talk about it. Nice to know it wasn't the comedy of the decade. I wish the theaters had had more guts to show the film People might have supported it as a way of demonstrating our right to express whatever we choose. I'd have worn my bicycle helmet and a baking pan under my sweater though.

Why bother with this? Also, unless you're a Baratheon, that sweater is a fucking abomination, Alonso.

Talking Heads in the trailer. That's pretty awesome!

I'd prefer to not have the film spoiled in a review without warning?

I saw this film on Netflix a few nights ago. I'm a little shocked to say this but it was very funny. Very very funny. One of the best films I'm seen in a long time.

If NK _actually_ hacked Sony, which _at least_ isn't the whole story, and Sony decides to squash the movie release, then Sony should fucking leak The Interview.

With the Great Dictator, Chaplin stated later in his life that he would have never made the film had he known about the atrocities happening under the Nazi government. With this movie, everybody knows about the atrocities, yet they still made the movie.

That one guy is insane. Franco is gold in this movie

"President Kim Jong Un" ... Kim Jong Un isn't the president of North Korea, Kim Il Sung still has that title, despite having been dead for 20 years. His position is just being the "Supreme leader"

Franco was the best thing about this movie, in my opinion.

Those who feel their inalienable right to pay good money to see a really dumb movie should protest by watching a really good movie.

Might I suggest instead the dictator friendly "big hero 6"

Actually the do kill him in team america. He gets kicked off a ledge and impaled by a pointy hat.

You guys did a good job here, salient points being made left and right.

I think What the Flick's trying to take the movie too seriously. Don't get me wrong - I couldn't help but want the movie to be more serious than it was, but it wasn't trying to be super serious. They made a movie about a relatively serious topic and play those notes but realize that in the end, it's a comedy.

Some more spoilers you guys spew out that you think is nothing. This is getting out of hand.

I wasn't expecting biting social commentary from the Seth Rogen gang anyway, just glad to hear it's funny.

Again with the spoiler. You guys should seriously watch this. Ruins the whole review aspect.....

A surprisingly well done review from WTF.

Just recently subbed! Well done review. I actually enjoy the spoilers. That's what happens right.

I'm surprised that Ben didn't mention how sexy Diana Bang was as Sook.

WATCH OUT!!! They spoil the ending of the movie during the review. MASSIVE SPOILERS INCOMING IF YOU WATCH THIS VIDEO!

I'm sure I'll see this movie someday. Were the threats only against U.S. theaters or anywhere globally? What are other countries sayin'?

Lol when your issue with a movie is too many jokes and not enough political commentary… you might be too old

You guys didn't get it!

The hacking controversy got me quite curious to see this movie. Then I looked at several reviews which were not all that good, which caused me to lose my interest.

i think, i think, i think, i think, i think, i think ithink ithink... you make good points ben but hell you dont need to say ithink starting every thought , otherwise thanks lol

"Franco is one of the best actors around"......OH BEN.....worst shit to ever come out of your mouth.

It's on the torrents now :)

I Am glad it finally got released.

omg now i wanna watch it dude

If you laughed throughout the movie (and it's a comedy), whether it had a message or not, that rates at least a 7. No?

wtf is up with IMDb giving it 9.9/10?

so i watched it, it's not funny, and it's mostly james franco, which makes it worse

You guys totally didn't get the spine of this movie, which can be summed up in one word - "Honeydicking". It's what the movie is all about. They're comparing what Franco does as a talk show host to what Kim Jong Un does as head of state... it's almost the same. The scene where franco is talking about how his dick stinks but kinda smells good is a riff on this theme running throughout the movie. Everybody is "honeydicking" everybody else. And Kim is the biggest honeydicker of all. And as for why the movie can't stop at just making Kim look bad in front of the Korean people during the interview... see "Chekhov's gun" for your reference.

"It was distracting because it had too many jokes". That might be the dumbest thing anyone has ever said about a comedy in the history of the human race.

#NukeNorthKorea

Why people still putting review out for this movie. The general public will not see the movie no time soon.

What is the point of this? I think its a bit insensitive to the rest of us to release this even though most of us wont see this movie for a long time if ever.

SPOILERS!!. Eminem is ...

That sweatshirt though...

I want to see this movie so bad

What does matt say at :49-51?

PLEASE RELAY THIS TO THE STAFF & HOSTS OF "WHAT THE FLICK" TRULY-A HEARTWARMING HOLIDAY MESSAGE! Can I ask the hosts of "What The Flick" a question? Why do you think you can be movie reviewers and CONSTANTLY CONSTANTLY CONSTANTLY RUIN THE MOVIE!!! OK, Sony pulled the movie for now-that does not give you the right to reveal in detail the entire ending of the movie and specific details-I will not restate them so i am the same asshole as these assholes but this is not a rarity! I know they have had complaints in the past because now they SPOIL and put SPOILER UP as they are spoiling it within seconds so you have no time to even turn it off! Hey guys, this is not a movie analysis show-its a review that leads people to mmake informed decisions and this is the first movie you ever did that just happens not to be released right now but they do it over & over again! Even when they do not spoil, they use language that any idiot who has a brain can figure it out. I love Mr Duralde saying "I DON'T EVEN THINK THIS CAN COUNT AS A SPOILER BECAUSE IT IS IN THE LEAKED MEMOS". OH SORRY ALONSO, WE ARE ALL NOT ALL IN THE BIZ READING THE HOLLYWOOD SONY MEMOS-ESPECIALLY THE AUDIENCE YOU ARE FILMING FOR WHO WATCHES YOU TO GET INFO ON MOVIES AS IT IS YOUR JOB!" So yes it is A FUCKING SPOILER!!! I get that you are all jaded and see movie after movie and discuss them all day long-we do not and movies are entertainment for us not a job so we spend alot of money to go see these and not get free press screenings! In the same session, they filmed the HOBBIT 3rd movie review and casually reveal the death of a major character "EARLY IN THE MOVIE"! UMM, Excuse Me! I am not an avid HOBBIT Tolkien reader and enjoy the movies as a Hollywood getaway! I had no idea that major character dies and I am fucking pissed now that I know! What is wrong with you people!? Yes, spoilers suck! I am not an asshole worried about day to day nothing spoilers on tv shows and act crazy but when you go pay alot of money to a flick, then Yes, I would like to have the story naturally unfold whether it sucks or not-let me decide. This movie "The Interview" truly did surprise me with the ending as i thought they would go another way in my mind so when I do see it eventually hopefully on VOD soon, knowing the ending really fucks up the experience for me. I know on TURKS channel everyone has all the fucking answers and everyone nows everything that is true and correct for society. However, why don;t you take a does of humbleness and treat the movies like a special experience it is for most of us and show all of your audience a little respect. I can assure you the majority of the audience feels the same way.I am a moderate with liberal and conservative views and sometimes I agree with TYT channel views and sometimes I am outraged but i always respect their opinions. Therefore, brighten up and don;t think because you feel so highly about your views that it is necessary to hear your detailed summary of how the movies wrap up or how a character should have lived or died-label reviews as spoilers (as you do with the tv summaries that are so enjoyable because it is an open discussion by everyone who saw the eps together) so I can make the choice to have the ending or even the beginning ruined as in the case of Hobbit 3! I love Christy and used to enjoy the guys but finding their glibness and sanctimony becoming a little too harsh. Lighten up guys and come back to the love of movies with all of us and respect your viewers-that is my Holiday Wish-QUIT BEING ASSHOLES! Love you all! Merry Christmas & Chanakauh! Hookman

I saw this movie with my family

Alonzo mentioned he was surprised that the film got greenlit. I thought it was odd when I heard about it - but what's crazy is that SONY™ Entertainment's CEO actually beloved the film would filter into North Korea on pirated DVDs and a _actually_ inspire someone to assassinate Kim Jong Un. Which seems completely insane to me, but apparently an analyst at the RAND corp and, according to the CEO "Someone" at the state department agreed. My theory is the RAND analyst was blowing smoke up his ass. www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/sony-the-interview-and-the-unspoken-truth-that-all-movies-are-political/2014/12/18/406f84c6-86ca-11e4-b9b7-b8632ae73d25_story.html

WHY? i wanna watch this :(

Was that Stalin/Stallone joke one of the best jokes in the film?

found the movie very original which no one has mentioned anywhere - you guys should take a shave

This movie didn't do it for me. It was okay.

I give this movie a 2. It fucking blew.

Yeah yeah...but it was pretty funny

Monumentally sad that the battle lines for free speech are being fought with the people who have basically murdered comedy for the last decade. It's like the last place I would want political satire to come from. If Sony cave at a toothless Apatow clan film, god knows how Armando Iannucci or Chris Morris or Danny Strong are gonna get anything greenlit in this climate.

THE INTERVIEW Drinking Game & Review (2015): t.co/qzYu6za43n #drinkinggame #TheInterview #review Stay in from the #blizzardof2015

This film is terrible, it's really bad. I'd go as far as saying it's the worst comedy film I've ever had the misfortune to watch.

Ethnocentrism is always funny.

We watched the Controversial Movie that was banned in Theaters but is now on Netflix. The Interview - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oM2fGzJrFIc.html

kim jong ill got killed in team america..

this movie was hilarious

I guess every fucking movie has to be political, god forbid a movie is just made to entertain!!!

Crazy funny movie. These movie critic losers analyze everything so much these days, nauseating.

the interview has been released !! www.androidauthority.com/sony-the-interview-google-play-576479/

Wanna see it more cuz its banned lol

this movie was horrendous. i couldn't finish it, and i never shut off movies a fraction of the way through. i also have a crush on lizzy caplan...and that couldn't keep me interested! :D not worth all the attention it got, not by a mile. horrible, horrible waste of film.

Fu north korea

Rogans not that smart. . He's a lowest common denominator bottom feeder..
