The Interview Review

by - 4:57 PM


         Ok. ( ' -') Sooo, this movie has so many wrongs it can't be right lol. Let me start by saying that this was initially not going to make it out into theaters, or even showcased on the PSN network This was mainly because it is highly controversial, and talks about America "taking out" Kim from North Korea. But in order to get that close to Kim, James and Seth are seeking to give Kim an Interview. Geez, how extreme can that get. But in case it seemed like it would've been too serious, they made it into a comedy. ( ' -' ) haha?

       First thing is the above picture portrays either:
      1.     White American males are here to save the day, and take out Kim
      2.     Or America is here to save the day because we know best  
    Gee, thanks guys. Couldn't have done it without you. I understand that they are Hollywood's funny guys, but come on. This couldn't scream any more ironic than it already has.
       Second, as we go throughout the movie, they made an effort to claim there is a stereotype where the CIA agent uses her sexuality to lure them into doing her work. I mean women couldn't kill Kim themselves, but at least they can plan how to. They redeem her importance to the mission when James and Seth fuck up twice. At least she is not a bimbo in this. Even though the way she was dressed before was essentially to manipulate James into saying yes to the mission. Not so bad is I do say so myself.        
 

        Third, my teacher from college has explained the white male patriarchy. Many times white males sleep with women of another race as a form of "right of passage". It is a sick way to stake dominance and patriarchy authority in the world. But that is the "American" and maybe even the "European" way (considering the rape an pillage of many cultures and nations across history). Here you can see that white male patriarchy coming to save the day would not be complete without "tasting" the "forbidden fruit" of North Korea. We learn towards the end of the movie that the girl Seth banged was essentially his soul-mate, but nothing overcomes bromance.

           In this movie, we see a softer side, and possibly a much kinder side of Kim that maybe we wouldn't normally expect. He is essentially a normal guy with Daddy issues. He, like James in the movie, is unable to enjoy all of life's pleasures due to his father being excessively critical of his interests. Liking things like Katy Perry's music and enjoying margaritas are deemed as homosexual interests because it's not "masculine" enough. Not too mention, Kim explains how he can't enjoy life since he is 31, and has no idea how to run a country. Whoops. ( ' -' )! In the end, we learn it is still no excuse for his people being tortured and starved.

          All in all, this movie was corny and wonderfully quirky. I liked it? ( ' -' )? Below I included the trailer. :P
