The Internship (2013)

Also Known As: -
Year of first release: 2013
Director: Shawn Levy (The Pink Panther, Real Steel)
Actors: Vince Vaughn (Dodgeballs), Owen Wilson (Zoolander), Rose Byrne (Knowing, X-men First Class)
Country: USA
Genre: Comedy
Conditions of visioning: 27.10.2013, SD VOD, Home cinema, French version
Synopsis: Two salesmen (Vaughn & Wilson) apply for a traineeship at Google with the ambition of changing their lives.
Review: I watched the movie without my full attention, while doing something else. It is based on the same idea as Dodgeballs: ordinary people can also achieve great things. But I didn't lauch much during this one, the jokes didn't hit properly and it contains no really interesting character.
Watching it in French reminded me why I never do that: the way the translation was done is just awful, not trying to adapt the jokes but just translate them word to word.
I didn't watch this movie on purpose so soon after Real Steel, which is from the same director but diametrally different and much better.
Rating: 3 /10
