The publicity surrounding the movie made me watch it. It follows two idiots, played by James Franco and Seth Rogan. Two brilliant actors who deserve 10/10. The magic they had in movies like Pineapple Express is diminished.The movie is in no way perfect by all means, but it does have it's surprisingly funny and shocking moments. It's witty fresh and original. The music was very Tarantino-ash, therefore I loved it. Yes, the movie is overloaded with toilet humor, but it does not necessarily make it a bad movie. Watch and enjoy!

I actually enjoyed this movie because I knew what to expect. It's a Seth Rogan/James Franco flick, so I just watched it to laugh and be entertained for a few hours. It worked for me. It is definitely not the best comedy I've ever seen, but It did have me laughing within the first five minutes.It has a plot that could only be conceived from a late night conversation and large amounts of Mary Jane, but the execution wasn't horrible.I think the people who rate this less than a five either have no sense of humor or they knew nothing about the movie going in. It's a silly comedy. if you're in the mood for a silly comedy, it's worth watching at least once.

What's not to like about this here? The Comedy? the Bromance? the Franco-Rogen duo? Comedy buddies James Franco and Seth Rogen play the host, Dave Skylark, and producer, Aaron Rapoport, respectively. And in a show called Skylark Tonight, a fictional and popular celebrity news talk show. It just so happens that the Supreme Leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, (played by Randall Park), is a fan of their show. When the CIA learns about Kim's penchant for the TV show, it devises a plan to have Skylark and Rapoport assassinate North Korea's leader.It feels better when you imagine it happening right now in front of you. A real life Comedy duo mixed with a Comic version of "the most dangerous man on the planet" right now, and who happens to love "Firework" by Katy Perry?Although, the brilliance fades near the end. But still manages to be really entertaining. So I liked it. And would recommend it as a must see for most of you! It's a good comedy. As long as you see it without any kind of resurrections.

I couldn't take it for more than 15 minutes. The CIA and Spec Ops should use this instead of waterboarding. Thirty minutes of this would have ISIS killing each other. I can never regain those 15 minutes of my life. The plot lead in was pathetic,the acting was abysmal, and the scenes were a cross between an attempt at humor and a gangsta rap video.
