Intrigen - erotisch und gefährlich

Swain, who makes a coherent centerpiece for this cinematic travesty, is about the only good thing in the film. From over acting just plain bad acting to one-dimensional characters to bad cinematography to lousy music to awful direction, etc. this flick about the supercilious high fashion biz is a huge loser. Even the title misses the mark.

For anyone who has been in the fashion, modeling, beauty magazine or cosmetic industry. You have to watch it after a bad day in the office. You will love this movie. It might be sterotypical but you'll see how true it is.

For all you interns out there, my heart bleeds for you, but there is a silver lining to it all in the long run.

A poorly made film made worse by the fact that so many of its jokes are so inside they will go over people's heads. Yes, I get the fashion jokes. It's not that I don't understand the setting. Instead, much of the humor feels like when someone just has to tell you about the funny thing that happened to them at work, the funny thing that is terribly unfunny once removed from the workplace.

I think Dominique Swain is generally better than the movies she gets stuck with, but even she is subpar in this film.

If you're fascinated by the fashion industry, it's worth checking out. Otherwise, stay away.

Oh, and it has Joan Rivers in it, too. Consider yourself warned.

All the ingredients for a fabulous movie are here: some interesting actors, some snappy dialogue, some stunning "fashion cameos," and some jokes at which only an insider could wince. Unfortunately, this movie is a fallen souffle. Is it a romantic comedy? Is it a series of over-the-top satiric vignettes? Is it a whodunit? Is it sincere? Is it blatantly corny? Yes, yes, yes. It never takes a consistent tone.

i love Dominique Swain, really i do , but David Deblinger is a much more interesting charactor in this movie. it's not the 1st time. he was the most interesting charactor in "Kiss Me,Guido". Who couldn't resist a man who doesn't go by a name but a symbol and is referred to as just "the wack job?" What i don't get about Intern is, why is this girl an intern at a fashion magazine? she doesn't seem to be that into fashion. and the ending was the most prodictable thing EVER! joan rivers and kathy griffin were very annoying. if it wasn't for the few laughs i get from David and Ben Pullen, intern would be the biggest waste of film i have ever seen. it's not really comedy, and not really all that romantic. A very canned, easy-to-see coming romanced. if you want to see some good dominique, watch "girl." Wanna see a good romance, watch "funny face." Wanna see a good comedy, watch "ground hog day." wanna see all 3? don't go w/ this movie. ps- i know i can't spell, don't bother telling me, it won't change a damn thing!
