Re: The Internship
Well I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would, I expected this to be pretty low on laughs but it actually turned out to be a pretty sweet albeit lightweight comedy (I will point out that I'm not in the anti-google camp and as I really like their products & services the advertisement aspect of this film really wasn't an issue for me).
I thought everyone involved was pretty solid and although it wasn't quite as good as 'Wedding Crashers' it still did enough to merit getting a 7/10 from me...

Re: The Internship
This was a lot more enjoyable than I thought it would be. Of course it's utter bullshit and one big Google advert but, apart from the scene with the abominable Will Ferrell, it was really rather sweet and had a lot going for it - I didn't even find Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn as irritating as usual. It's a predictable but warm-hearted story about team spirit and "love your nerd". And Googliness, whatever that is.
Had some bitches to our left who kept on talking when the film started so asked them to be quiet to which they took exception - sorry but you know you're in the wrong. They did shut up after that though.
8/10
P.G Google still ought to p*y their corporation tax in this country. I reckon a few less free meals and sleeping pods should do it.

Re: The Internship
Utter pap. Not a single laugh, giggle or even smile to be had.
How is this possible given the undoubted comedic talent involved ?
Ransid & insipid. Not even good enough to be offensive.
Left 10 minutes before end to catch a tram. Cannot imagine i missed much.
...a well deserved 0/10. This film could make me switch to yahoo!, it's that bad.

I had anoying young teen girls behind me. Even more anoying, their parents seemed to sit at the other side of the cinema. I can see why!Beate wrote: Had some bitches to our left who kept on talking when the film started so asked them to be quiet to which they took exception - sorry but you know you're in the wrong.

Re: The Internship
Just back from the Glasgow showing of this with the OH.
We both thought it took an awful long time for this film to warm up (around about the bar scene) and ended up being a light-hearted comedy that really could have done with a 15 cert to ramp up the laughs for the grown-ups somewhat.

Re: The Internship
Just got back from a screening in Manchester, enjoyable film and characters with good comedy timing. Some very funny parts and interesting perspective of a different generation competing in the technology world. 8/10
