This movie was, in and of itself, very entertaining. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. It was the first movie I ever rented online and I did it because of the circumstances surrounding its release.

That said, I have to comment on whomever is saying Sony "hacked themselves" to release this movie. Use some common sense people!!! No company has ever advertised for a movie to come out, "hacked themselves", made their own stock prices drop nearly 10%, killed all Internet advertisements, then turned around and released the movie at limited venues and online at the same time. Tell me a time when this has EVER been the way a movie has been released.

For those of you that want to stick it to that deranged dictator in North Korea, see this movie. Rent, buy it, download it, do whatever you have to so you can see it. It will make you laugh and its a good time.

Don't even pay attention to the rating on this movie. It was good. Some might say the movie is not worth watching after the first few minutes, but I would challenge them to watch the movie a bit longer. This movie was very well written, it was classic Spike Lee style (but written better than some of his old movies), and it even had a surprise twist (which I won't divulge). This movie is not like one of those gospel stage plays or even some of the movies that you would find on Netflix. This is much better. A person needs to really give this movie the 2 hours it deserves and have a good time. It may make you cry (when the secret comes out), but this movie is not a waster. It certainly deserved a better rating than it received. Please give it a chance, and you will not be disappointed.
