Jesse Eisenberg is very good as a diffident young man working in fun park, romancing Kristen Stewart and being led astray by Margarita Levieva (who I guess we recognise from Revenge). Able support from Apatow regulars Bill Hader, Kristen Wiig and Martin Starr, with Ryan Reynolds and obnoxious friend Michael Zegen, who joyously finally gets his.. That Jesse doesn't drop his alky dad in it is a subtle touch.
Also written by Superbad Mottola (a serious film lover - as evidenced by his Top 10 list for Criterion) and very colourfully shot by Terry Stacey.
