INTERNSHIP GAMES

Cinemavixion Review

Tania Zee's "Internship Games" offers a satirical take on the high-stakes corporate world, cleverly disguised as a "Hunger Games" parody. The film pits six ambitious college students against each other in a cutthroat competition for a coveted internship at Econo Air. Each contestant harbors desperate reasons for securing the position—ranging from financial necessity to academic pressure—which blinds them to the increasingly bizarre and unsettling events unfolding within the company. While the film may not boast major awards, it succeeds in its comedic premise, drawing humor from the exaggerated pressures of modern-day internships and the lengths to which individuals will go for career advancement. The performances, particularly from Tonya Reneé Banks, Tania Zee, and Elena Marie Ray, anchor the narrative with a blend of earnestness and comedic timing. "Internship Games" is a sharp, albeit niche, commentary on ambition and corporate absurdity, offering a humorous yet insightful look at the trials of young professionals entering the workforce.
