The Internship

There should be a law against two-hour comedies as its extremely difficult to keep one continually afloat for such an extended period of time, especially given such a simple, one might even argue flimsy, premise. It’s not surprising that only half of The Internship works, but it is odd that the second-half is much better than the first. However, given that waterboarding would be a preferable form of torture to The Internship‘s first 45-minutes, anything would be an improvement.
Despite an underutilized charming cast, the script by Vince Vaughn and Jared Stern reeks of desperation. Not only are our two leads desperate for jobs, but everyone in the film from the group’s lame mentor (Josh Brener, who can’t seem to utter a sentence without throwing in the word “zizzle” for all his homies) to the perfunctory mean kid (Max Minghella) all act out of a sense of desperation that’s nearly always far too pathetic to be funny. Throw in enough half-hearted and rushed jokes to get you booed off the stage at an open mike night, and you’ve got the makings for one of the lamest comedies of the year.
