Saw Adventureland with my sister and her boyfriend last night. It was pretty good, though not what we were expecting. Anyone going into it thinking it's going to be 'Superbad II' is going to be disappointed (as my sister's boyfriend was)--despite how they're advertising it, it's not that kind of movie. The laughs are a lot fewer and farther between, and there's more emphasis on character and story. Not to say that it isn't funny or well-written, because it is...it's just more of a coming-of-age story with comedic elements than a full-out comedy.
