Adventureland DVD
This year’s most hysterical and insightful coming-of-age comedy, Adventureland, is available to enjoy on Blu-ray Hi-Def, DVD and download as well as VoD and rent from the 8th February 2010.
The ultimate rites of passage comedy, from director Greg Mottola (Superbad), sees recent college grad James Brennan’s (Jesse Eisenberg - The Squid and the Whale) dreams of backpacking around Europe for the summer shattered.
With his family left cash strapped, he’s no option other than to take a summer job at a run-down amusement park.
From laugh out loud funny to emotionally charged and set against a kick-ass soundtrack, Adventureland will have consumers reminiscing about those bitter sweet teenage years.
Adventureland’s cast also includes Kristen Stewart (Twilight), Ryan Reynolds (The Proposal), Bill Hader (Tropic Thunder) and Kristen Wiig (Knocked Up).
On what should be an unsatisfying summer, James is introduced to the shady goings on of the fun fair world as he swaps cheap Czech beer, world-famous museums and cute Italian girls for stroppy parents, stuffed toys and screaming kids.
But stumbling upon an assortment of misfits, goons and lost souls, James’ stint at Adventureland is about to prove more enlightening than he could ever have imagined.
Amongst the outsiders he encounters is witty co-worker Em Lewin (Kristen Stewart) who instantly captures his heart.
Clueless to her secret affair with rocker turned maintenance man Mick Connell (Ryan Reynolds), he sets out to win her affections, but not without the typical teen trials and tribulations thrown in along the way.
