A feel-good dramedy that failed to impress critics comes out of retirement on streaming

Renowned actor Robert De Niro has spearheaded some of the greatest gangster movies of all time with films like Casino, Goodfellas, and Heat. But towards the latter half of his staggering career, De Niro has increasingly delved into comedy, and when his skills in the genre proved to be highly profitable, directors were itching to cast him — which is exactly the case for 2015’s The Intern.

Written, directed, and produced by Nancy Meyers, De Niro stars in the full-hearted dramedy as Ben Whittaker, a 70-year-old retiree who applies for an internship role at a successful fashion company founded by Anne Hathaway’s Jules Ostin. Initially, Jules is hesitant to include the internship role in her organization, but she and Ben eventually form a tight bond that is packed with plenty of genuine moments between the two leads.
