Boring beginning, great middle, crap ending. Some belly laughs from Adam Devine who should have had a bigger part - he is hilarious. Robert De Niro was pretty good but we were rooting for him to die or get the job at the end, the actual ending was one of those nothing-really-happens ones. Anne Hathaway was back to her devil wears prada role which I love her for. A good ish film if you fancy light background fodder but not one I'm likely to remember in a few days.

So I had no interest in The Intern, at all. The only reason I ended up watching it was because I was cooking in the Caribbean and needed a time out in a beautifully air conditioned room.Now I like Hathaway, I think she's a competent actress but I very very rarely get to see her in anything as she is a very niche actress and only tends to do the kind of movies I go out of my way to avoid.With her and DeNiro I expected at least strong performances and I got them and a lot more on top. The ludicrous plot plays out better than you'd expect, it turns into something beautiful and heartfelt.The Intern is undeniably a sweet movie and it has substance but sadly it also has a number of overwhelming flaws.Now Nancy Meyers is arguably the "Chick flick" queen and therefore I haven't seen many of her films. Based on this despite it being a competent little film I don't think I'll be rushing to see anymore.Though full of emotional and thought provoking moments it simply has too much that plays against it and a finale that I had to see with my own eyes to believe.Passable, but I'm not the demographic.The Good:HeartfeltWell madeThe Bad:Questionable finalePlenty of schmultzThings I Learnt From This Movie:I will never understand why so many react like that to infidelity, leave immediatly you silly girls!

I tried to watch this but Robert De Niro makes me sick nowadays.
