So, I saw Adventureland this past Friday. All in all, I really enjoyed it. However, it wasn't quite what I expected. After seeing the trailer and it being pitched as being from "the people who brought you SuperBad" I expected the movie to be slightly different.
When I think SuperBad, I think of a lot of crude humor and laughing out loud the entire movie. However, that is not what I got. Instead, I got a movie that made me laugh quite a bit, but did not rely on crude/sex jokes the entire time.
And on a side note, it really seems like they wanted Michael Cera for the main role. I mean look at him. I don't know if I would have approved, even though I love Michael Cera. But I feel like they would have been trying to play off of the success of SuperBad even more.
In the end, however, I recommend seeing this movie. It was very enjoyable and made me laugh quite a bit, despite going in expecting a slightly different movie.
GO SEE ADVENTURELAND.
Peace. Love. Money.

haha he does look like mike cera. and i agree with you about the false advertisement. I thought it was going to be more super bad style and it wasn't. But i have always liked the dry style of humor so over all it was alright.
ReplyDeletethis just seems like they are still trying to manufacture movies with the "loser" main character. Its a little annoying. The audience is suppose to laugh at the characters but accept their quirky "uniqueness." I dont know I loved Superbad but this movie really draws no interest to me...love the beard joe
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing superbad i feel like not many movies can compete with it in the same style. I dont know if this movie appeals to me but maybe ill check it out.
