The Intern

I thought that this movie seemed like it had been filmed by an amateur cameraman. It was hard to follow and I got very bored when trying to watch it. I bought a copy of the film in a sale a few days ago and from the cover it looked like a really good teen flick. A cross between "Clueless" and "She's All That"...it's nothing like them at all. I wouldn't bother wasting your time with this film, and judging by the number of posts on here, it doesn't look like many people have! For me this film was very disappointing and a complete waste of time and money.

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.

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.

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!

Sad to watch things fall apart. Lots of fashion world cameos for those who are into it, but the writing and story made it difficult for me to watch. With American Psycho, one of the worst this year for me (out of about 40 films so far).

I hope there are people who will enjoy this film, and it seemed like people had fun making it. The best parts for me were the choreographed bits at the start.

In the knowing dialogue, the bitchy jokes and the campy fairy-tale story arcs, this seems like an insider film that will only appeal to status-conscious gay fashionistas.

Some supporting characters were fun in their venality. But no one was really FUNNY.

I wanted to tap the lead actors on the shoulder and tell them to run and don't look back. It was like watching someone fall down the stairs for an hour and a half.

Sorry, but it's not a winner.
