Saw The Interview starring James Franco and Seth Rogen today online. Franco plays Dave Skylark a tabloid show host and Aaron Rapoport played by Rogen is his producer for their celebrity tabloid show, Skylark Tonight. Rapoport is tired of covering entertainment news interviews and wants a change to the show. Its always been Skylark and Rapoports dream to land a big-time interview, so when they find out that Kim Jong-un is a big fan of their show, they do everything in their given power to make it happen for the world to see. When the Central Intelligence Agency finds out that they land this interview, Agent Lacey played by Lizzy Caplan and Agent Botwin played by Reese Alexander are sent to meet with Skylark and Rapoport to plan their trip to Pyongyang, Korea and their assassination mission which goes hilariously wrong. Overall, the movie was funny and action-packed, no doubt and featured a bunch of other celebrities including Eminem, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Rob Lowe, among others; but being that the theme was to assassinate the leader of North Korea, there were many reasons including that one which sparked such a controversy. I can see why there was all the buzz and controversy surrounding the movie; everything from the alleged Sony Pictures hack by North Korea and obviously the media played a major role in hyping the movie up to the point where it still could have been released nation-wide and potentially could have made even more money, but instead was only in limited theaters because of public safety concerns and also online to view. We supposedly live in The United States, a country of free speech; so if someone doesnt like something on television or on the radio, please change the channel and dont watch or listen, but we cannot continue to live in a censored country and still consider it Free. My cinema score is 8/10 and I would recommend go seeing it either alone, with a date, or group of friends. #maverickradio™
