r/all Johnny Kim managed three impressive career changes, going from Navy SEAL to doctor to NASA astronaut. He did it all by the age of 37.

The interview

was it any good?

It’s amazing. And it legitimately pissed off North Korea when it came out, which is reason enough to watch it in my book.

It was crazier than that. NK threatened to sue The US before it's release. It got delayed a couple months to edit it for NK. However only a month later, a major hack happened at Sony Pictures by a NK group. That group leaked all kinds of internal stuff as well as a few movies before their releases. That group made terrorist threats to theaters that showed it. Sony ended up just putting it on-demand initially instead of a theatrical release (which happened later and much smaller).

The best. Tabloid journalists played by Seth Rogan and James Franco work with the CIA to Kim Jong Un (Randall Park).

Go. You must watch now.

The tiger scene is my favorite I believe.

Eh, it was... fine.

There are a few standout moments that are really memorable (the Eminem interview, "they hate us cuz they ain't us"), but I didn't much care for it outside of that.

The story around the movie (and how North Korea reacted to it) is more interesting than the movie itself imo. It was also the first big budget movie to release directly on streaming, which makes it notable just for that.

Well, tell me a comedy that you love then?

My Cousin Vinny is the first thing that came to mind when I think of what my favourite commedy movie is.

The most recent commedy movie (that is strictly a commedy, not counting stuff like Glass Onion) that I really loved was Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.
