Comedy flick "The Interview" was released on Dec. 25 with a limited premiere.
When Sony announced that they will cancel the premiere of this movie, the scene where Kim Jong-un died was released on Youtube. This made the movie's ending not a surprise anymore.
But due to the high demand of this movie and when US President Barack Obama released a statement during press conference at the White House saying, "I am sympathetic to the concerns that they face. Having said all that, yes I think they made a mistake," the controversial movie was released on theaters on its original date.
The beginning of this movie shows North Korea is launching a missile, then it follows the talk show of Dave Skylark (James Franco) named the Skylark Tonight. The show's usual target guest is a controversial celebrity. Surprisingly, in the beginning of this movie, Grammy award winning rapper Eminem has a cameo appearance. In the story, he plays as himself and comes out as a gay in the show.
(Note: Eminem cameo appearance as a gay is only based on the story).
After celebrating the 1,000th episode of the show, Dave and show's producer Aaron Rapoport (Seth Rogen) next big interview project is the North Korea leader Kim Jong-Un. In the story, Kim is a big fan of Dave Skylark. Before Dave and Aaron go to N. Korea, CIA agent Lacey (Lizzy Caplan) proposes to assassinate Kim.
When Dave and Aaron arrived in N. Korea, their first attempt to kill the leader failed as the Presidential body guard ate a strip with ricin who soon died at the dinner. Dave spent days with Kim and became close with him. When the bodyguards died during a special dinner with the president, Dave became guilty and discarded the one strip of ricin. However, Dave discovered that the grocery store that they saw is fake.
Meanwhile, Aaron and Sook (Diana Bang) confessed their attraction to each other as well Sook's darkest secret- she's against Kim's government. So in the end, when the interview was finally conducted, Sook helped Aaron and Dave to fight Kim by letting the viewers know his dark secret including the butt hole of the president.
Dave was gun shot by Kim. Plot twist: Dave wore a bullet-proof vest. So the fight scene ended with helicopter vs. tank. Kim rode in the helicopter while Dave, Sook, and Aaron (including the puppy) rode in the tank. How did Kim died? Dave was able to destroy the heliocopter before Kim's allies released bullets and lauched missiles.
