movie: The Internship
starring: Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson
genre: Comedy
year: 2013
format: Netflix Canada
plot: Two salesmen are fired after nearly twenty years in the business, and find themselves in a competition with hundreds of twenty-somethings for a job working at Google.
I actually liked this, it had a very old school Revenge of the Nerds vibe to it. I'm not much of a fan of Owen Wilson, but he seems to have a decent chemistry with Vaughn and it just really worked.
This was a predictable storyline, but still, it managed to come off with enough laughs. I think the fact they took something as universal and current as google, made it seem fresh.
There really isn't much to say about this other then it's a solid buddy movie. A couple of characters find love, half of them find themselves and some respect, which all comes back to the old ideas that played so well in Nerds.
