Even though we've been on the topic of poverty, over our snow break, I finally had the chance to watch the movie The Interview. To begin with I've always felt that Seth Rogen and James Franco are funny to certain extent although I did keep my expectations up due to the reviews I've heard from my family and friends. When it was first announced that the movie was not going to be released due to the hacking of Sony by North Korea, my curiosity increased because I didn't think the movie was going to be that offensive toward Kim Jong-un. After watching the movie, I was shocked that people would even want to be involved in a movie that takes a serious matter way too far let alone the fact that it's now out on Netflix to the public to watch. The movie was funny in some parts but the rest was completely unnecessary and should not have been allowed to be out there. North Korea may or may not have nuclear weapons but if they do, this movie could have ticked Kim Jong-un off to the point where he did fire them. I think that the movie all together was a disappointment as well as a huge risk that could have been seen as a threat but North Korea if they watched it.
