Adventureland (2009)
Director: Greg Mottola
It was the worst job they ever imagined... and the best time of their lives
Writer: Greg Mottola
Starring: Kristen Stewart, Jesse Eisenberg, Ryan Reynolds
Okay, so I went to see this movie with my mate today (her choice, not mine) but I am so totally addicted now! I was wary since I didn’t particulary enjoy Kristen Stewart’s style of acting in Twilight but I thought the way she behaved in Adventureland was perfect especially when she said “I’m starting to hate myself” in relation to her relationship with Connell…which was just a little bit to creepy for me. She looks younger than she is and so it looked like Connell was dating a schoolgirl but at least the scenes appeared natural not forced. Did anyone else notice that James (Eisenberg) reacted real shocked when Em (Stewart) said “Fuck” the first time?? It was well written, it kept the noisy guys behind me entertained as well. My only issue was that Jesse Eisenberg really reminds me of one of my exes which is about distracting. On the whole, a funny film and Kristen Stewarts acting style suited it. Did y’all know she touched her hair 55 times (according to IMDB) during the movie…something she also did in Twilight. The last scene was my favourite (and not cause it was the ending) it was just so damn natural. GOOD FILM!!!!

James Brennan: I think somebody was trying to write “Satan Lives” on that wall but they spelled it “Satin Lives”.
Em Lewin: One of those textile worshiping cults no doubt.
