BBFC

The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is a non-governmental organisation, founded by the film industry. They are responsible for the national classification and censorship of films within the United Kingdom.
When the BBFC reviewed the film for "the interview" they did have a few issues with it. one of the main issues was the strong verbal sex references throughout the film which at one point included bestiality. Also some visual sex references, including a couple having sex however this was not in strong detail. along with this there was also strong bloody violence, which is used for comical effect.
Throughout the film, strong language is very frequent and theres three uses of very strong language however none of it is delivered aggressively
The film also contains use of Ecstasy tablets, female breast nudity, "toilet humour", few racist and homophobic remarks and brief comic sexual violence references. No cuts were made before the release of the film by the BBFC and the film was rated 15 meaning people of the age 15 and over can watch this film.
