Further proof IMDB is for hyping films up more than their actual quality: The Interview has 39,000+ votes, and a 9.9/10 yet it appears very few have seen it outside a few preview screenings in October once you read the actual reviews... not to mention the fact it has barely been released but that amount of votes is huge when compared to other barely-released films on the website. While I think North Korea did a shitty thing....... a critic on Slant Magazine sums it up by saying: During the titular sequence, Kim lets the beast out for a moment when he suggests that America is no better than North Korea in certain respects, a sharp point which the film inevitably discards, along with anything else that might insinuate that Rogen and Goldberg are interested in anything other than cock-centered humor. (Not for nothing is the films most memorable joke the creation of the term honeydick.) Thats not a knock against this brand of comedy, which certainly has its place, but rather against films like The Interview that use major global issues to cheaply dress up what is two hours of hit-and-miss erection jokes. For all the hoopla thats been made over the Sony hack and Kims demands that the film be pulled from release, The Interview is all talk, a sheep in wolfs clothing, which makes its frivolous politics all the more odious. imdb/title/tt2788710/
