REVIEW – The Interview – because America.
| 18. December, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

With Returning Guest Jordan Hoffman!

This week, Katey, Patches, David, and The Guardian’s Jordan Hoffman defy North Korea and the bigwigs at Sony by reviewing The Interview, a movie that will never see the light of day. Drowned in controversy over its depiction of Kim Jong-un, Sony buried the latest from Seth Rogen and This Is the End co-director Evan Goldberg after hacker terrorists threatened to attack theaters showing the picture. Which is too bad… because the movie is pretty damn funny. Hoping that one day, listeners will be able to this lowbrow-highbrow gem, the FITWR crew decided a review was still in order. A brief mention of Sony truly offensive holiday offering, Annie, and answers to this week’s lightning round question rounds out this week’s review episode.
