i will never understand when somebody says they did not enjoy
the internship fair enough it may not be everybody's favorite film
but i'll be perfectly honest this is a strong contender for being in my top 15
favorite films certainly my top 10 comedies this film
is just everything i look for in a comedy so
this was released in 2013. it does not feel like that long ago
directed by sean levy and um written by vince vaughn and jared
stern it also stars vince vaughn as billy
mcmahon and owen wilson as nick campbell rose byrne is also in
it josh brenner uh josh god
uh quite a few other notable names and the plot is what
really drew me to this it sounded so exciting
so the description from imdb two salesmen whose careers have been
torpedoed by the digital age find their way into a coveted internship at google
where they must compete with a group of young tech-savvy geniuses for a shot at
employment so this is this is hilarious so these
kind of middle-aged guys go on an internship at google and
when they're on this internship all of the candidates are put into
different groups and obviously they're in a group with three or four other
people all of whom are you know very young
recent college graduates and they stick out like a sore thumb and
there's a lot of jargon and and tech lingo that they just don't
understand and it's very funny but they also bring
something really positive to it as well and that's experience
so it's all about the i don't want to say older generation because they're not
exactly that old but all about one generation
helping the other generation and vice versa
i also love the fact that it's based on google
because you get to see these off offices these google
offices and the sleep pods and just everything looks so
clean and crisp and just so futuristic and so incredible and
it makes me want to go and get an internship at google and i would never
survive at google it's too technological it wouldn't work for me
unless i was just writing something but visually it is one of my favorite
films the set designs are incredible i'm not
actually sure if this was ever filmed at google i will try and find that
information out while i'm rambling on about it um
oh apparently the unrated version contains
more profanity and nudity in the nightclub scene
which i pretty sure i didn't watch that one
filming locations the filmed at the georgia institute of technology
for a very very um very harry potter themed
moment i won't spoil it because it was one of my personal highlights
uh the screen gems studio in atlanta and i have no indication that they ever
filmed anything at google at all not even on the
exterior but the film itself is brilliant i just
love the dynamic of the older generation the newer generation i love the color
palettes of this film i love the set designs
i love the narrative development the tasks that they're giving
come across really well on screen it's mostly
goofy funny silly but there is a point where it gets a little bit more serious
and you realize why you're on this journey
with these characters so it's great fun but there is obviously
a little bit more to it as is the case with pretty much every
decent film so when somebody does say the internship
is rubbish i just don't understand it
because i had well i didn't have high expectations for
this i had high hopes for this and i think that this actually exceeded
my hopes so i don't even know if it's just people
have too high expectations or maybe they're anti-google
but personally you know i'm reviewing this on youtube i love google of course
i do active chrome user i like to promote the
use of google chrome i loved it absolutely loved it the
internship is one of my favorite comedy films one of my favorite films from 2013
definitely my favorite owen wilson film and i love seeing them work with vin's
phone they just work so well together the rest of the cast were great the film
is so bright and colorful and great fun i can't fault the
internship if you haven't seen it maybe make it the next film you see
because it's brilliant
