I liked the movie, maybe because I went in with low expectations, but it did make me laugh a few times. Other than that, it's just stupid funny. And I think they made a lot more money off this thing because they made a big fuss, otherwise, I don't see the movie doing that well in theaters.
The whole fuss was that North Korea took the fact that they're trying to kill Kim Jong Un as an act of war against them, and made all sorts of threats against the states. Then, some threats were made against any theaters that showed the film, and Sony's networks got hacked. Sony stated that any theaters that didn't want to show it didn't have to, and so many pulled out that Sony didn't see the point in releasing it anymore and cancelled it. The only reason people cared about it was that they thought North Korea was controlling what we can and cannot watch. Eventually, North Korea said that they weren't the ones doing the hacking and threatening theaters, and even offered to help figure out who it was to clear their name. I guess Sony decided that this was good enough and released it in a few places. My story could be off a bit, but that's more or less how it went down.
Anyways, I watched it last night. It was entertaining, much better than I expected it to be, but it wasn't anything special.

Lol, I know the story. I just meant, there didn't need to be a fuss about it. It's just a movie. T Here are a lot more offensive stuff out there.

Definitely messed up hahahaaha
Saw American Sniper. Was good but as a canadian it can be hard to relate to the "AMERICCCAAA" vibes it sometimes gives off. I also heard there's might be some.. controversy regarding Chris Kyle, which was kind of in my head but I tried to take the movie as it is.

Watched the Interview. Holy crap, it's the best move I've seen in a long time. I've watched most of the Rogen/Franco comedies, but for me this one beats them all out.

Dracula Untold. It's pretty good. The acting is a bit poor especially I'm the beginning but the graphics are good. I can't wait for the sequel.

Last one I saw was the giver, it really digs deep, the topic of it is well known, about how to solve war and violence problem in the world, they gave a strategy for it. Worth watching, but want something new, similar to divergent
