De carrières van de vertegenwoordigers Billy en Nick zijn door de digitale wereld in het slop geraakt. Om te bewijzen dat ze nog steeds helemaal van deze tijd zijn, melden ze zich aan voor een stageplek bij Google, samen met een groot aantal briljante studenten. Maar toegang krijgen tot deze wondere wereld is slechts het halve werk. Eenmaal binnen moeten ze de strijd aanbinden met de geniaalste whizzkids van het land. Billy en Nick blijken wonderen te kunnen verrichten, als de nood maar hoog genoeg is. (20th Century Fox)

I’m pretty sure Google isn’t actually like this. The exterior might be spot on, but the way these two dreamers imagine it? Not so much. That said, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a lighthearted, feel-good comedy. Sure, some people see it as a glorified ad for how awesome Google is as a workplace, and yeah, it could be seen as a brilliant marketing move or a recruitment video. But I just saw it as a fun comedy. I didn’t laugh as much as I expected, but I still had a good time, and honestly, the positive vibe left me in a great mood after watching it.

Hogwash with no story, but with a nice duo of characters and the intriguing environment of the Google Empire. To tell the truth, I didn’t feel like switching off prematurely and was genuinely curious if he won in the end. P.S. The best scenes are the ones with the whores in the club.

The fact that Vince Vaughn is incredibly unsympathetic actor, whom I can only stand in "Wedding Crashers," is one thing, but what Owen Wilson is doing here... Well, I understand why some people can't stand him. I haven't heard so many empty, dull, and pathetic lines that are supposed to be funny just because both actors speak so fast in a long time. The classic awkward happy ending saves it, there is an unnecessary romance here, and ultimately it's better for me than "There Will Be Blood", but not by much. At least I didn't have to fast forward it.

A pretty good light-hearted film, which fortunately doesn't rely too much on vulgar and tasteless humor like many contemporary American comedy films. The premise is a bit far-fetched and largely unrealistic, and there are a few downright awkward moments, but I had a good time through most of it. The very good soundtrack also contributed to the relaxing atmosphere. (60%)
