Adam K Poignant, touching, and with a lot of humor Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/25 Full Review Jason K An absolute master piece based in the 80s full of nostalgia. The on screen chemistry between Jesse and Kristen is something to be admired. The film is a drama with a lot of comedy from bill hader especially, I’ve watched it a lot of times. Just goes to show the brainy kid gets the girl. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/25 Full Review N P "Adventureland" is a pretty great YA film with all the drama set working in an 80s theme park, which is a cool and, irrevocably, not so cool place to be. I couldn't help but feel for this small story we can all relate to - whether that's falling in love, working at a shitty job, fooling around with your friends, low-fi drama and just being a young person in general. The soundtrack is nostalgically fire, the cinematography and direction is honest, and the characters are simply, real. The film is simply a chill, genuinely fun time, and I would honestly pop it in when a need for such a time inevitably comes by. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/12/24 Full Review Mason M Adventureland in an amazing coming of age comedy that succeeds at what it tries to do. This film creates a wonderful atmosphere, gets great performances out of all of its leads (especially Eisenberg, Hader, and Stewart), and is amazingly written both comedic and dramatic. My main takeaway is that I wish that Greg Mottola wrote more films, because the two he wrote (Adventureland and The Daytrippers) have some of the best and most clever writing I've seen in comedy film. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Allen F I found the humor to be too light and the writing to not be great. It is entertaining but I did not feel much emotion throughout the film. If anything this film is nostalgic. It reminds you of the summers you have only when you’re young Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/23/24 Full Review G M "Adventureland" is a coming-of-age drama that captures the nostalgic essence of late 1980s youth, centering on a recent college graduate who takes a summer job at a local amusement park. Kristen Stewart delivers a surprisingly strong performance, adding depth to her character and bringing genuine emotion to the screen. The film presents a nice blend of drama and romance, offering a heartfelt love story amidst the backdrop of quirky park antics. However, despite these positive elements, the slow pace of the narrative often causes it to drag, leaving moments of boredom that overshadow its charm. In the end, while "Adventureland" has its commendable aspects, it falls short of being truly engaging throughout, making it an okay watch but not a standout one.
