About this movie

Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson team up to crash the digital world in this laugh-out-loud buddy comedy that clicks! In an attempt to reboot their obsolete careers, old-school salesmen Billy McMahon (Vaughn) and Nick Campbell (Wilson) talk their way into the prestigious internship program at Google's state-of-the-art campus — where the competition is as intense as it is hilarious!

Ratings and reviews

This movie features two main characters who are introduced as recently jobless from their long careers together as salesman, hopeless and without even a slight chance to make it just as interns. I have to admit that through half-way into the movie, I disliked many of the supporting actors as the other interns at Google (should be no surprises there) who were crude, disrespectful (yet intelligent) who are unlike the main actors . the ones you're rooting for to "win", which doesn't play out as you might think. The movie goes along with the not so off-mark display of the ridiculous, immature arrogance based off of this generation's snarky social attitude and their shear aggressive academic competitiveness. But the movie seems to evolve for the main characters, as well as a few others, seen as inferior and clueless in the mix by everyone else, but bring out great morals within the movie, shifting the movie into more of a heartwarming story of failure to success (here, I use the term 'success' as relative) through their faith in collaborating as a team, connecting with people, and connecting those people with information. Definitely a good comedy, but it goes deeper than expected.

I've had trouble sleeping for a while now but when I watched this "movie" I went into a coma. This two hour Google ad is the worst movie I've seen in the last five years. If I could go back in time I would have taken the $5 I spent on renting it and flushed the money down the toilet. That would have been far more entertaining. Vince and Owen should be ashamed.

So if you remove your frontal lobe and don't think too hard about the premise its not a bad stab at Hall Pass meets The Break Up without the relationship theme ... Must've been a stretch for Vaughn to not have a hot costar to relay on, it shows ...
