Two salesmen, Billy McMahon and Nick Campbell, learn that the company they work for has folded due to the digital age. Desperately in search of a job, they decide to try an internship with Google. There they must compete against tech-savvy genius' for an opportunity at employment.
This film was directed by Shawn Levy. This film has a story with heart, and ideas of finding a well paying job, and Google. This film spends a lot of time showing how great Google is to work for, and how much fun it is. This makes it feel a lot like a commercial for Google. I doubt that everyone working at Google is a nerd and is a minor. The feeling of everyone being a minor is over played by 80's references and every modern nerd reference out there. The story relies a lot of the actor's interactions, but fails to pull them out of strange ramblings. There is adult humor in this film. The comedy is good for a few chuckles, but there are no moments of robust laughter. I doubt this film would have benefited if it was created in a different time. Vince Vaughn played the role of Billy McMahon. He was good at playing a familiar role.He was likable on screen, but spent too much time rambling. Owen Wilson played the role of Nick Campbell. He was also good at playing a very familiar role.He created a character full of hope, but spent a lot of time keeping up with Vaughn.
I give this film 2 out of 5 stars! It has the makings of a great comedy, but its formulated script hinders it from being funny.
