THE INTERNSHIP

[maikuu]

[Muka]

The culture of Google is amazing . Google provides everything to their employees and to others as well. They have their own resting rooms for all employees and they are convenient(kind of your second home I guess). In addition, google provides free food. I remember from the movie that Billy wanted to buy a fruit but everything was free to his surprise. I would not refuse the job from the GOOGLE if I had an offer.
Overall, I liked the film. It is interesting and funny with dipper [deeper] meaning. I think the author's(producer or writer of the movie) message is that "whatever happens never give up". For example, Billy got fired but he did not get depressed. He went to Nick and persuaded him to go to Google(in order to get better job). Another situation [,] where Nick's and Billy's team was losing the competition[,] but eventually they won and got the job is another good example of author's message.

Teacher's note: Thanks for being the first to post on The internship. OK, so were you being ironic when you said you would refuse a job offer? Sounds like a pretty good place to work. I'm guessing GOOGLE has great benefits like health insurance too. Hard to find in America these days. Great observation and opinion piece.

I have ever worked in a big software company in Thailand. The culture was so similar to Google, so I think it's normal culture for big companies. For Nick and Billy, they are quick-learners. They were able to learn many technical things quickly. I think it's very hard to learn every thing in short time even we knew some technical things before. I think Nick looked younger than Billy in sense of learner. They are both clever, but Billy lost his self-confidence easier. For Google, I'd like to work there because there're a lot of job which is directly related to my major such as Google Glass and Google driverless car. Also, I love the culture, free food, atmosphere and sleeping capsule. . For my opinion about this movie, I like it because I like comedy movies. However, it was a bit exaggerated. I give 7/10 for this movie

Teacher's note: Glad you like The Internship. And it's cool that it connects with your own experience. At first, I thought GOOGLE would be a cool place to work, but I prefer more human interaction, unlike, for example, when Billy forgets to sign in, he doesn't exist. I couldn't swallow that. Thanks for posting.

In GOOGLE company, they have everything for employee such as coffee or sleeping capsule. For Nick and Billy, they have a lot of experiences so when team have [has a] problem. They can find the way to solve their problem. They have [make] a lot of attempt[s]. Although sometimes they lose their target but in the final they can return to their dream and finish their work. I think i would like to work at GOOGLE. Because from the movie I think GOOGLE is my second home.

In my opinion, I like this movie because this movie thought me to fight with pressure and thought me to have an attempt to learning.

Teacher's note: So GOOGLE is your second home. . . Hm, . . savory. . . lively. I like this. Kind of like working in a movie studio, its own self-contained world. Please take note of GPS. Thanx for posting.

Based on the movie, Google provides a good environment that helps its employees to be more creative and productive. It learns [teaches] them how to work in a team and how to challenge and overcome the obstacles. For Nick and Billy, they are very funny, and they have a special character. They have a great confidence that leads them to achieve their goals. For Google, I hope to get a chance to work there. It helps you to develop your skills and adapt to the challenges of the work.

For my opinion about this movie, I like it because it provides a lesson through a funny story.

Teacher's note: I love this post! The author uses precise, and therefore concise, vocabulary to say a lot with a few words. This is writing, fellow nooglers. Thanks for weighing in.

Billy (Vince Vaughn) and Nick (Owen Wilson) in The Internship 2013 are friends and have some similar and different things. Both Billy and Nick are funny. Billy is [a] spokesman more than Nick but he also looks like [he] don't [doesn't] care about his job because he knows how can he find a new job. That showed when he lost his first job; he found another job which is in Google. Then when he looks like lost his job in Google, he tried again to find a new partner and new job. Nick looks like care about his job more than Billy. Billy and Nick are good friends. Nick looks like listen more to Billy and cannot work without him. Not only Nick but also the other members in the group cannot work without Billy. The reason is that Billy can uplift the group. These are some similar and different things between Billy and Nick.

Teacher's note: Finally, an author willing to tackle the challenging compare/contrast essay. We have a pretty good job here in just a few words. Please be really careful with GPS before hitting the submit button. Big thanks for posting!

I like the movie, we can not only overview Google's culture, but also learn some lessons through the comedy. The most important thing I have noticed is that Nick and Billy's good attitude when they encountered the difficulties resulted from different generations in Google's internship. People grow up in dissimilar conditions and played different roles in life. Thus, they will have very different opinions on many issues. In order to minimize the generation gap, they all tried to understand and communicate with others. Everyone should look at the world through somebody else's eyes and stand in their shoes.

Always be positive, life never delivers anything that we can't handle.

Teacher's note: I love this author, man! This post points out how the generation gap can be a force for positive energy. I couldn't agree more! Let's all think this way and get back to the idea of generational family, then extend the concept to friends and their families. IMHO, during the last 100 years or so, as we have emerged into the tech age, especially recently, the rapid transformation of knowledge (everything from the airplane to the computer) has tended to divide us alone generational lines. In other words, the son or daughter must teach the father or mother how to use the latest tech gadget. This evolution seems to make us more self conscious about our generational differences and drive us apart along these lines. Not OK, not OK!! Let's get past this and get back together as this author suggests, grandparent, parent, daughter, son. Thanks 4 posting.

The Internship is an interesting movie which makes me smile knowingly. I like this movie because it’s very uplifting, positive and funny even though some parts of this movie are not that true. This movie conveys the ideas of innovation and creativeness, and it inspires people to pursue their dreams no matter how hard it would be. In Google, working is life. They not only evaluate employees’ working abilities, but also focus on their communication skills.

Billy and Nick are not talented, but they are willing to help and encourage their team members very much. I really like the spirit that they showed in the movie which is nothing can beat they [them] down when they have some big troubles. This is life. If I have chance to work in Google, I would definitely say yes. (one of the reasons is that Google allows their employees work with their pets )

Teacher's note: Thanks for thoughtful and funny post. On a technical note, I like how this author correctly uses paired connectors (not only . . . but also). The trick is to keep the clauses or phrases grammatically parallel. What kind of pet do you have? I'm guessing a snake or a lion. Am I right?

the internship movie was so interesting and full of challenges. it shows that we can achieve any dream if we have determination. in addition , If you believe in your talents and abilities you will surely succeed. that [is] what I learned from Nick and Billy experience.

Nick and Billy tried and worked hard and they never give up even though they weren't the best in the company !!working at Google has a great benefits . such as insurance m good salary , and you can work comfortably and so on ! but I don't like to work there because I'm not familiar with these [this] stuff . but it's still a wonderful place to work on . especially for people who are talented or at least familiar of technical things .

Teacher's note: Yes! The Internship does portray a sense of inspiration by showing how one can overcome most any obstacle to achieve a worthwhile goal. Glad you can feel the vibe. Please be careful for GPS. OK? Thanks for posting.

This story about our characters is banal and lifelike : two forties friends lose their jobs, while their boss lives in "chocolate." Sounds familiar, doesn't it? If in real life 99.9% of unemployed people looking for something similar to what they were doing all their lives, our "interns" took a new step. Step to something new, unknown, incomprehensible, but incredibly interesting and fascinating. Step towards the dream.

I wonder would it be interesting to watch a story about how they were selling electric wheelchairs in a nursing home? No! Our dinosaurs come to their senses and decided to be interviewed to get an internship at Google, after which they would get modest positions. Isn't that heroic folly? But why Google? Self-promotion? Product placement? PR? No, ladies and gentlemen, because Google - it's a dream job, workplace outside of the format, the work of which I would like to have. (My major is Computer Science by the way)

Separately, about the main characters: Billy McMahon (Vince Vaughn) and Nick Campbell (Owen Wilson) weren't on the best performance together since both played in "Wedding Crashers." But if "Internship" is not a breakthrough, it is a higher step of the stunned duo. I really missed them and my expectations are met.

Rose Byrne (actually she is from Australia ) played a lonely and pretty successful top manager Dana, whose personal life didn't [doesn't] go well even if she works in Google. You can also draw parallels with the lives of thousands of real Danas, who have been successful but cannot what to do next in their lonely 35.

What else in this movie? To learn how to build a team? Nope, that is DRIVE, that you feel when you are a part of this team, in which you have mutual assistance and support. The film is about how sometimes it is necessary to go beyond the usual circle of things : to distract from the monitor and admire the sunrise, or do something stupid, after what you will not only regret, but remember with a smile all your life. And maybe this nonsense will lead you to a breakthrough, who knows? This guide is about how to make a step towards the dream. And this is a guide to action.

Of course, the film has other colorful characters, good jokes at a good time. It is hard to describe more - just watch it on Film class.

Teacher's note: Here, ladies and jellybeans, we have a wordsmith, an author, who really likes to write, and delivers the goods. Bravo! I especially want to point out how this author expresses tons of praise for the story and the characters in a tone which avoids being unabashed. In other words, there are no gushing words of approval, but instead, the author chooses words carefully, always mindful of critical considerations. This is the mark of an evolved movie critic who has just seen a good movie. My recommendation: start a film blog. Big thanks for posting.
