Adventureland

Rating: ***/*****, or 6/10

Lyrical, at times witty and charming, but ultimately slow paced and melodramatic coming-of-age drama about a teenager who finds himself a summer job at a rather crappy amusement park filled with eccentric employees, where he also meets his first love who's engaged in pretty messed up relationships.
