65.) The Intern [9/30/2015]
Maybe I am expecting too much: Robert De Niro and Anne Hathaway were both pretty good, the story had some interesting elements, and I wasn't bored, so I should probably call this a win; that said, for a movie that went as far as to have the characters state, loudly and often, that women could have it all, it sure focused a lot on a dude, albeit a helpful one, who underwent no significant life changes while a woman with a complete arc about self-acceptance and forgiveness was literally marginalized; with a few narrative shifts in focus, this might have been a really great, uplifting movie about women in the work place, but instead we get a movie about an old guy who helps people by just being himself.
