Young Adult
It is a group of powerful events that we live in differently through that woman who is a writer. The events began after her unhappy marriage, when the storyteller returned to her hometown of Minnesota, where she wanted to live a new and different life. Now, that woman seems to have some problems with her ex-boyfriend, who lives a wonderful life with his wife and newly born daughter, and perhaps it will be wrong.

Kudos to Reitman, Cody, and Theron for crafting such a great bastard-ess, who you'll either feel empathy, like myself, or uncontrollable hatred for.September 24, 2012
Lacking the over-polished zing of Juno or the heft of either of Reitman's previous offerings, Young Adult is nonetheless an interesting pseudo-comedy that dares to add depth to its characters instead of just having them be assholes for laughs.January 29, 2013
Jason Reitman and Charlize Theron create a realistic insight into what happens to the popular high school student who can't adjust to the real world in Young Adult.October 07, 2016
Somehow, the film is very enjoyable -- most likely because it has Cody's sense of humor and celebration of human shortcomings.May 26, 2013
You sense the teeth-chattering chill almost as deeply as you admire the bravery of a pitch-black performance by Theron that begs nothing but contempt for her scurrilous Mavis Gary.December 16, 2011
There's little about Mavis that makes for feel-good revelry. That's an understatement, perhaps. Yet, Theron's work feels true to Mavis' malaise -- and often, just as sad.May 12, 2015
Cody and Reitman seem mainly interested in scoring points off their characters and making cheap jokes at the expense of anybody who isn't lucky enough to be Diablo Cody or Jason Reitman.June 20, 2013
There has always been something so inward about [Theron;] she can seem detached or deprived. But here it's as if the script and the direction felt bound to heed that loneliness, and let the actress go with her bravery and the depressive sag of her mouth.December 16, 2011
As good as Theron and Oswalt are, and they're very good, Young Adult doesn't give them enough room to breathe.December 16, 2011
A low-key, indie-style comedy that plays precariously close to an unfunny sociopathic case study.December 16, 2011
Young Adult may be the year's most engaging feel-bad movie.January 31, 2012
There is a raw honesty here rare in movies, and it's very funny too - excruciating at times.
