“The Internship” is a comedy starring Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson as two washed-up, laid-off salesmen who get internships at Google. They have no tech experience and, past 40, are ancient by Silicon Valley standards.
The movie is funny in parts, predictable in others, but underlying it all is an extended product placement for all things Google.
(...) #Google clearly thinks the film can do wonders for recruiting. Last month, Larry Page, Google’s chief executive, said the company had participated because the movie made computer science cool and might encourage people to pursue it.
