"Experience never gets old."
Going by the name of this film, you'd expect it to be about a young new intern, new to the chaos and disorder of today's corporations, struggling to earn approval, and maybe finding love on the way. Well, The Intern is almost nothing like that. (I know this movie came out a long time ago, but there you are.)
Ben Whittaker is a 70-year old widower and he's just discovered that retirement isn't anything excited. He's tried everything, from travelling the world to cooking to learning Mandarin. Hoping to find some adventure, he takes up an internship and becomes a senior intern to the founder of an online fashion store- Jules Ostin.
Most of the movies I've reviewed here are science fiction or action or adventure, but it feels great to write about something else. Robert DeNiro executes his role as the perfect gentleman flawlessly, from the crisp suits he wears everyday to the advice he gives to his younger colleagues. His character was one of those who you can't help but like. Anne Hathaway was perfect in portraying the hectic life of a working woman who juggled her duties. The two had a really great chemistry. Jules was the one who asked for help and Ben was the one who brought the experience to the table. They form the perfect team. Humour was no stranger here. The boys road trip was absolutely hilarious, and I was rolling around with laughter in my seat. The audience cracked up numerous times during the movie. If I had one complaint, it would be that I felt that the ending was a bit abrupt. But overall, a heartwarming movie, and I was smiling as I walked out. (By the way, this movie is NOTHING like The Internship. It couldn't be more different.)
