Interview with the Eisenberg


I found "Adventureland" to be a pretty good little movie, if not quite the brilliant coming-of-age fable some are making it out to be. The soundtrack is great and performances are solid, but there wasn't one truly surprising moment in the entire film. It was fun to watch, but I sort of felt like I was simultaneously seeing it for the first and 300th time. If that makes sense.

That said, I enjoyed having the chance to do an e-mail interview with Jesse Eisenberg earlier in the week. He was great in "Roger Dodger" and "The Squid and the Whale," and found him very likeable as the center of "Adventureland." I felt kind of dumb asking him a silly questions, but it comes with the territory.

So here's what he had to say to my sportsified line of questioning.
