What critics compared Mac and Me to
I mean you have to be pretty deep into sci-fi films to reference the 1988 alien kid's film "Mac and Me."
Not since the odd 1988 boy-meets-alien flop “Mac and Me” has there been a film as egregiously built around product placement as “The Internship.”
Shawn Levy’s sentimental comedy of self-improvement through corporate devotion is every bit as aggressive and shameless in its advertising integration as previous nadirs like the notorious E.T. knockoff/McDonald’s commercial Mac And Me, and Foodfight!
The Olive Garden product placement is far from subtle and reminiscent of the product placement of McDonald's in the dreadful and cringe-inducing Mac and Me.
