I watched the whole thing unfold, it was mean and out of order but it was a lot less malicious than people made it out to be. And my friend Sam worked at a water park and he saw the film, he related to it.įull transparency I’m a massive Russell Brand fan. First time I tweeted about my praise of the film, I was surprised I got like 50 retweets that I was convinced Adventureland spoke to a lot of people. And I dare say, the best performance by Jesse Eisenberg and Kristen Stewart.

And it didn’t even try slut shaming or sexist tropes. I understand it was based on the teen years of the director so I definitely got an accurate vibe. Like Heathers, saw it on Netflix before it left and I was impressed by its honesty. Slappy Squirrel levels of petty to be specific.Īdventureland I have seen and really dug.

Because I am that petty to The Taming of the Shrew. Like Chris though, I would definitely watch it on the grave of 10 Things I Hate About You due to it being based on a sexist play by Shakespeare that may as well be an MRA playbook. Though fun fact, Sandra Bullock was offered the role of Neo but turned it down since she didn’t think it’d be the type of film she’d want to make st the time.Īfter seeing it though, she admit she regrets turning it down. And I also understand how it can be seen as a trans person narrative. You got to admit, the martial arts stuff and the existential aspects can be very appealing. Been a while but I do think it got more attention than Dark City because of better marketing and the presentation. Though it’s weird seeing it on Shudder now because it’s not really a Horror film. The dark humor I got a kick out of and the cast was charming. Heathers I watched years ago before it left Netflix.
