This is one of the best movies i have seen in a long time. In my opinion it is too good for an oscar. The writing and acting are impeccable. It would be an injustice to tell anymore about the movie other than its better than the Usual Suspects which i like. This is a must see! The DVD also has an alternate ending. See it as soon as possible, if you like great movies.

It is probably only right that the process work both ways. American cinema gobbles up Australian talent, from Mel Gibson and Judy Davis to Russell Crowe and Nicole Kidman, so it's fair play when Australian cinema imports elements familiar to the American crime film genre.
"The Interview" stars Hugo Weaving, now known to American audiences as Agent Smith in "The Matrix" and Elrond in "The Lord of the Rings" films. The movie gets off to a jarring start, reminiscent of Franz Kafka's "The Trial", as Weaving's character Fleming is arrested, dragged into the police station, and questioned with no idea if he is being accused of something or what that crime might be.
From there, the film borrows elements here and there from recent American crime movies like "Internal Affairs", "The Usual Suspects", "Seven", and "Presumed Innocent". The common thread linking these films is the omnipresent theme of "The Interview" - what is the truth and how far can or will a person go to find it. A workmanlike script benefits from a talented cast, headlined by Weaving but also complimented by Tony Martin as the lead interrogator, Aaron Jeffrey as hot-headed cop Prior, and Michael Caton as a savvy beat reporter.
Although many American viewers might find "The Interview" a little too overly familiar in some spots, the solid script and the skilled acting make it a worthy and recommendable film. It's smart, and it handles its territory efficiently.
One technical note - as of the day of this review, the technical details of the DVD do not list it as being widescreen. For all you widescreen fanatics like myself, take heart. The film is indeed widescreen, presented in its original aspect ratio. Enjoy.

Okay, I lied about having seen the DVD, but I've seen it in the theater and I thought someone should get the ball rolling with a few thoughts about the movie itself.
Hugo Weaving you will either remember from "Pricilla, Queen of the Desert" or "The Matrix" depending upon whether great cinematography and acting (in the first case) or expensive special effects and editing (in the second) opens your wallet at the local cineplex. Weaving gives an amazing, better-than-Oscar quality performance in this recent take on the police interrogation movie. In the opening scene his apartment is raided by some very aggressive police... gosh, if I tell you about it, it will lose all of its impact. Better not to tell.
Suffice it to say that if you liked "Glengary GlenRoss", "The Trial", "Under Suspicion" and/or "The Usual Suspects", if you like to see an actor wrap himself around a role, and if you like a nice plot twist or two, buy this film. Twice.
