While Google and Microsoft were first to start streaming Sony’s controversial movie The Interview online, Apple has now joined as well, with the film now available in iTunes for Canada and the USA (via Re/code).
We watched this movie last night and it’s what you’d expect from a Seth Rogen movie—good for cheap laughs. The movie was filmed in Vancouver and Burnaby, with shots from the surrounding mountains. The film is 1 hour and 52 minutes long, and the 1080p HD size is 3.71 GB.
Hey US and Canada – The Interview is now available on Digital HD on: Google Play, YouTube Movies, XBOX, and… iTunes!!!!!!!!!!

Update: Apple said the following in a statement to Reuters:
“We’re pleased to offer ‘The Interview’ for rental or purchase on the iTunes Store,” Apple spokesman Tom Neumayr said in a statement.
According to a report last week, Apple reportedly denied Sony’s request to stream the movie in iTunes, despite the latter seeking help from the White House.
