Description:Ben (Robert De Niro), a 70-year-old retired widower applies for an internship at a online clothing company, just to have something interesting to do. He is assigned to the founder and head Jules (Anne Hathaway). At first, she ignores him. Then, when his good attitude and willingness to help in any way forces her attention, she decides he's too "observant." But before long, they are good friends and Ben is helping her make important decisions on the business, life and her marriage, which is on the rocks.

Reviews for The Intern

Review - Intern, The

OK. The characters of Ben and Jules were likeable and I was rooting for them. But the movie really didn't go anywhere. Jules' husband has an affair, and she, rightly, forgives him but with hardly any fuss. Ben is just a nice guy without any real purpose in life except to be interested. I don't know ... it all just fell rather flat for me.
