Why on Earth does this have such a positive rating here, after all the hype and the myriad of controversy I was expecting something edgy and bold, instead we were treated to a film which makes Epic Movie look full of original jokes. I can't even say it's in bad taste, it's just bad, I imagine that the positive score comes from the controversy which dogged the film. Rogan isn't bad, he plays the usual character which you'd expect from him, I am a fan of his, he's ok, but the rest of the movie sucks. Stupid, unfunny, lacking any true humour, it's just brash, infantile, the kind of script you can imagine two idiots came up with after drinking too much. A real shame, I had high hopes.

The film is not funny and quite boring. The worst thing North Korea could do is hack into Sony because it gives this dross more publicity than it deserves.I have seen parts of Atlanta, Chicago, New York and Birmingham that look like real misery holes and far worse than anything depicted in this film regarding North Korea (and those are exaggerations from the mind of a Hollywood director).Wanted to know how half the country voted for a snake oil salesman? Here is the answer! Drumpf is excited that his voters are dumbos

America and American film industry really want to sell Kim as a bad leader, they portrait him a nuclear holic, drunk, fat, angry racist president. But the irony is, fast forward 4 years their current president is far more worse than Kim. Just imagine if NK, Russia, China or even a Muslim country had made a film about any of the American Terrorist Presidents. USA would suddenly find interest in that country's democracy and invade it.A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME MOVIE

There's a lot of cheap jokes in this picture, then you realize that every character, every situation, every role, every issue is the butt of the joke. From the "Entertainment Tonight" TV gossip star to Kim Jong Un and everyone in between, the whole situation with North Korea; the set-up, the adventure, the peril, the rescue...they're all butts of the jokes. Not every joke hits home, but most of 'em work. And that's not easy.
