Metacritic reviews

Splinterheads, which aims to be a quirkier "Adventureland," never rises above mildly amusing.

Splinterheads gains traction from an eclectic cast that knows how to work a line.

Touching in its dorkiness.

Writer-director Brant Sersen's amiable indie comedy -- even less edgy than Greg Mottola's theme-park-set "Adventureland" -- attempts to compensate for its too-familiar romantic setup by defining its characters through idiosyncratic hobbies and traits.

Equal parts Hollywood meet-cute and quirky coming-of-age tale.

Amiable and proficient, this indie romantic comedy is never more or less than reliable.

Splinterheads might suffice some late night on cable, but that's about it.

If you want genuine laughs and romance in a carnival setting, go rent "Adventureland."
