Blake’s Blog

THE INTERN
The story takes place in Brooklyn. Ben Whittaker is a 70-year-old lonely man. He
is bored with his life. He plays golf, goes to movies, reads books and does yoga to
fll his time, but something is still missing. He decides to work again and gets a job at an online
fashion site. After a while, he works as an assistant for Jules Ostin, the owner of the company. Life
is really hard for Jules, she has lots of problems, but Ben helps her through her problems.
I think it is a modern fairy tale with an unrealistic story. It’s a romantic story without the romance.
Two Oscar winner stars, Robert De Niro and Anne Hathaway, have the lead roles, but the result is
just a feel-good movie. This movie is a bomb. You shouldn’t waste your time seeing it.
