What an adventure "Adventureland" was!

So... in the most recent past I've seen the Fast and the Furious, which was oh so fast and oh so furiously disappointing (JK... I mean for serious?.. who was expecting an oscar-calibre movie out of it?), and Adventureland.

The fast and the furious doesn't need much more mention other than it was an okay racer-action flick with a mindless plot, hot babes, and some beautiful cars...

Now the movie that was surprisingly, awkwardly, awesome: Adventureland! It was juno-esque in its combination of funny and dramatic, and it surprised me by being a movie that I actually enjoyed...

Basically, the movie revolves around a college grad whose plans to go to Europe fall through and is forced to spend his summer working at "Adventureland," a shitty amusement park in Pittsburgh. This awkward college graduate finds himself falling in love with "the cool girl," who brings her own spew of drama to the mix. The movie's character's are all awkward and comedic, and, somehow, they end up hitting a very dramatic home-run, despite most of them being so "off".


Oh, and did I mention it takes place in the 80s... Seriously bad clothes, bad dancing, bad hair-styles, and bad music... Which is the combination for supremely entertaining! I say that "Adventureland" is a go-go!
