Whether or not North Korea hacked Sony over their planned release of “The Interview”, it was still one of the biggest stories of 2014. Whatever the truth is, it hasn’t stopped people from making the movie somewhat of a hit during its video-on-demand and limited-release run. What would have likely been a lackluster film has been quite successful due to the controversy surrounding it, and if you were one of the people who didn’t buy into the hype, now’s your chance to check it out for free.
Netflix just announced that they will be offering the movie starting this Saturday, January 24. They also stated it would be exclusive to them, so it might be disappearing from the other VOD services around the same time. So if you don’t already pay for Netflix, it might be worth the $6 to check it out now, but if you’re like the millions of the rest of us, hopefully you saved some cash by waiting until it was available for free.
