ADVENTURELAND (2009)

4.8 OUT OF 5

 

This movie is straight fire.  Kristen Stewart has

the potential to be "John Blaze" for many years

to come.  She does a really good job in this

movie.  So does the woman who played Lisa P,

the guy from Freeks & Geeks, the dude who

played Frigo, the main guy from The Squid and

the Whale, and the people who played the main

guy's parents.  Even Ryan Reynolds does a good

job, and he's a major weirdo.  Surprisingly, the

parts that don't work for me are Kristen Wiig and

Bill Hader.  They are really funny, but they just

seemed out of place in the film.  Everyone else

was behaving like real people, but they were

acting different, like they were in their own

movie.  I laughed my ass of in the cinema when I

saw this.  I had two types of popcorn mixed

together (fancy BBQ popcorn and the movie

theatre stuff) and Coca-Cola and Goobers.  I saw

this movie with my woman.  I really felt a wide

range of emotions watching this film.
