THE REVIEW

Meanwhile, today is not the day, so know that I want to preface("I want to," not "I feel obliged to." I want to = I wish to = I feel like it and so I do it)

? ? ? ? I preface, I preface ? ? ? ?

1) I've only heard about this movie (like everyone, I imagine) because of the alleged Korean hacker attack on Sony to prevent the film's distribution

2) I've heard bad things about it, not because people talked badly about it. It was me who heard badly, meaning I was distracted. Because meanwhile I was on the phone providing assistance.

3) The opinions I captured (probably with the same attention) around were more than positive.

4) I'm far from making considerations on the pseudo-political affair that preceded the film's release. The themes in this film are treated in such a moronic and superficial way, that I don’t understand why I should bother.

The start is bewildering for two reasons (a new numbered list!)

1) It's not the direction of American Pie, but you feel that the world is the same, and when you feel it you inevitably think: oh my god, really?

2) Except for James Franco, it seems to start with a half idea. Seems like it.

That's it, the rest is clichés, basic stereotype characters, boredom, the villains teaming up with the good guys, more boredom, the Americans who are the good guys, the cultured references, filler clichés, cica bum bum cha, and the story of a TV producer motivated by professional redemption + a presenter motivated by success who have the chance to interview the terrible Supreme Leader mega bio Korean dictator. Maybe it's my fault that I started off on the right foot strangely. Maybe it's my fault that I started it. Yes.

I'm saying this just in case there's someone like me who, moved by the hype around the movie, in a candid and naive way, decides to spend a couple of hours watching it without researching first. I just wanted to warn you.
