The Intern


Jean, This is a pleasant ,feel good, Nancy Meyers movie. I would not say it is one of her best. It does have some good lines " Sitting is the new Smoking" and film clips from old movies at poignant moments "scenes from Singing in the Rain with Gene Kelly/Debbie Reynolds". I do not think comedy is Robert De Niro strong suit as he does a lot of smiling here. He plays a senior intern to a mail order internet start-up in Brooklyn. Ann Hathaway plays the CEO who needs a mature steady hand to help with her various crisis. The movie is pleasant enough but does not break any new ground.  Dad

P.S. The previews are:

Miss You Already
Room
Truth
Trumbo
Rock the Kasbah
