In a circumstance that is really only possible in Hollywood, Vince Vaughn & Owen Wilson score an internship at a company that many - at least those of us who lived through the dotcom boom and bust - perceive to be synonymous with Internet stardom - Google.
The film appears to be heavily drawing from the clichés the general population imagines Google to look like: Self-driving cars in front of a monstrous headquarter, food, and an organization that is flooded with computer geniuses in their mid-20s displaying awkward humor.
So, can "The Internship" be funny? I don't know. The movie won't be released until summer, but the trailer suggests that Google is mainstream enough to be the anchor for a movie. Some may scratch their head and wonder why Google was picked over Facebook.
