James Brennan (Eisenberg) wants to attend university but his parents broke the news to him that they cant afford to pay for his education and James needs to get a summer job if he wants to go to Columbia. The only job he manages to land himself in is at a theme park, Adventureland where he is appointed to work for 'games'. His childhood friend, Tommy Frigo (Bush) who too works at the park but in the more glamorous 'rides' division. James meets Emily aka Em (Stewart) who is a co-worker with at the games division and the two seem to get along well and eventually fall in love. James does not know that the mechanic, Mike (Reynolds) who in spite of being married, has regular sexual encounters with Em. Both Em and Mike keep this as a secret between themselves with no one being the smarter. Enter Lisa P. (Levieva) who is the hottest girl working at Adventureland who immediately starts to flirt with James. Not being able to resist Lisa's moves, James gives in and puts his and Em's relation on a roller-coaster ride. The movie suffers from being too slow and dragged with developments happening at their own pace. The movie is not too funny but isn't very high on emotions either. It tries to be something in between and hence not a very entertaining option. The movie does, however, have an interesting plot line which is different and not like the conventional romance. Hence, if unconventional romance is what you seek, this movie delivers but if it is humour or the chance to enjoy an emotional movie, then this movie doesn't.
