I think I'll wait. It will probably show up in Walmart's $5 bin soon.

I'm watching it right now on my 70" tv, which is sync'd through YouTube (via the internet through my i-pad) and paid through google...bit complicated to connect these dots but once its going, its all good. Only $5.99, which I feel is very reasonable considering Sony could have probably have asked much more due to all the publicity this movie has received.

I have to Agree with MSGirl, publicity stunt. I'm not sure about how it was rigged however just from the comments on this thread it seems like quite a few posters feel that they would not have gone to see it but now they are curious. Just think how much it would have cost for the TV News coverage, the Newspapers, and the websites, all free plugs.

I will wait until NetFlix offers it for rent. I have it in my queue.

I'm not going to spoil it for anyone but we didn't think it was very good. Not too funny, some crude humor and an overall silly movie...which was to be expected. I didn't mind supporting the film though and think everyone should, just to prove that the US won't be undermined or bullied.

Death of a President is a 2006 British high concept docudrama political thriller film about the fictional assassination of George W. Bush, the 43rd U.S. President, on 19 October 2007 in Chicago, Illinois. The film is presented as a future history docudrama and uses actors, archival video footage as well as computer-generated special effects to present the hypothetical aftermath the event had on civil liberties, racial profiling, journalistic sensationalism and foreign policy.

I do agree with that. I always have hated bullies. Seth Rogan's movies usually are very forgettable but enjoyable in the moment.

Just saw the Interview on Netflix streaming.
 
More memorable than the usual Seth Rogan movie especially given the context of the Sony hack and related matters.

Lots of bodily function and sex humor with some violent scenes but even that is quite campy.

It is on Netflix streaming. If you are a subscriber in North America you should be able to see it.
