But I ate it up and enjoyed every minute.
Robert De Niro plays a 70 year old retired, widowed business man who is content and healthy, but feels a lack in his somewhat solitary life. He signs up for a senior internship program at a hot internet startup company staffed by young Brooklyn hipsters. The Intern centers on his relationship with the founder, played by Anne Hathaway. He is initially seen as a harmless oddity in the office, but soon becomes kind of a mascot, and gentlemanly role-model for dressed-down male coworkers. With Hathaway's character he soon proves professionally valuable and they form a warm friendship.
What I liked so much about it was how affable all the characters were. There is no bad guy. It's just a sweet story of an unlikely but enriching friendship.
