In 1987, James Brennan's dreams of a summer European tour before studying at an Ivy League school in New York City are ruined after his parents have a severe career setback. As a result, James must get a summer job to cover his upcoming expenses at the decrepit local amusement park, Adventureland, where he falls in love with a witty co-worker, Emily Lewin. In that bizarrely shady workplace, the young carnies have unforgettable and painful learning experiences about life, love and trust while James discovers what he truly values.

This movie proves that post-grad life can be better than your high school and college life altogether, this movie gives me hope that after my educational years, I can still have the best time after all that shit. If I was offered a job, just like in this movie. I would take it. :) - @Wednesday, October 28, 2015 12:12 PM

One of the most misleading trailers of all time.....yikes. It wasn't a bad movie, though it wasn't particularly good either. Overly pretentious and full of itself, it's self-absorbed ego masturbation for both the director and Kristen Stewart. - @Wednesday, January 7, 2015 9:52 PM

One of the most charming coming-out-of-age romances ever. But the trailer is unthankfull. I would have never watched the movie if I had seen the trailer before - @Thursday, November 6, 2014 8:36 PM

Hello,nice to meat you! AHAHAHAHA.. No? Ok..

Guys,please take my advice,i watched the movie before the trailer,please,please screw the trailer,they totally made it look bad. If i knew who Kristen Stewart was before the movie i would probably just skip the movie,just recently i found out about Twilight. Her acting in this movie was incredible,sure i think twilight sucks,but it's the movie,not Kristen Stewart,give it a shot (I'm a guy btw and i adored the movie)! - @Friday, October 3, 2014 10:40 PM

Why do people hate Kristen Stewart so much? Cause of ignorant memes on the internet? Honestly I think she is incredibly beautiful. And this movie is alot better than what this trailer makes it look like. - @Wednesday, October 1, 2014 8:54 PM

They're trying to advertise it like a mainstream american comedy. Adventureland's nothing like that. It's in a category of it's own. Great movie. - @Friday, September 26, 2014 8:38 PM

not a good movie. why? 1/ its not very 80s though it claims to be 1987 2/ immature movie with a predicable plot(note i am referring to movie not characters in it who are free to be all that) 3/pretentious and elitist 4/ hypocritical, stereotypical, and irrational, in its(movie's) attitude and judgment on some characters last three point feed of each other - @Tuesday, January 7, 2014 1:32 AM
