Owen Wilson: Billy Vaughn

Billy Vaughn: But if you can get past this Mother of All Product Placements, you'll likely find yourself chuckling a lot during this silly but warm-hearted film, directed by Shawn Levy. Sure, it could be shorter, the script less predictable, the action much more believable, according to Times Colonist. The premise, like the whole movie, is far-fetched but enjoyable. Billy Vaughn and Nick Wilson are watch salesmen. On a client call, they discover their company has shut down. Their own boss John Goodman, appearing too briefly thinks they're dinosaurs. And so, of course, they apply for an unpaid internship at Google and There are really three movie stars headlining "The Internship": Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, and Google. Actually, it's a surprise Google doesn't get top billing over the humans, so adoringly is the company displayed. But hey, this is Vaughn and Wilson, and if their onscreen banter doesn't quite live up to the riotous 2005 "Wedding Crashers," it's still pretty darned funny. These two may be woefully inept at technology or at least, their characters in the film are. But chemistry? That Vaughn and Wilson have down. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
