Charlize Theron on Self-Discovery!
‘Young Adult’ is the fourth feature of Jason Reitman, whose movies have always had a refreshing indie feel. When I look back to his filmography, I think they all have these protagonists who are in process of self- discovery. Over the course of events, they found the new one/lost one of themselves. ‘Young Adult’ also joins this culture.

Marvis Gary, played confidently by Charlize Theron, is an adult writer of ‘Y.A. (Young Adult/Teen) Literature’ living in a big city, far away from home for a long time. Her daily routine seems to be like all the lonely writers- writing, sleeping, eating, drinking, and then sleeping again. Course changes when she receives an invitation from her ex, Buddy, for a baby naming ceremony and then she is back, back to the memories of her ‘glorious’ past, as she likes to think of it. Marvis has always been a popular girl in high school, we learn that from numerous conversations. Now she is a struggling (her series is about to be canceled) writer living alone in a city and dealing with a recent divorce. It’s no surprise that she wants to relive her popularity and more specifically, get his ex back. I think, because of living in this teenage world while writing literature and also having fame during here teenage, she’s still stuck in that phase. She’s still a ‘young adult.’ Which might be the reason why she still thinks that life can change the tracks and get her and Buddy back, like in the movies. We learn that Buddy is a happily married man and a father. And soon, over the course of events, Marvis also comes out of her illusion and teenage dreams and faces reality. Like I said, it ends with a self-discovery.

Reitman knows what he’s doing. Like all of his other movies, he doesn’t try to stuff you up with heavy emotions. Even the most melodramatic events would be presented with a light and refreshing approach in his movies. That’s where his vision stands out. And Charlize Theron does a wonderful job supplementing Jason Reitman’s vision.

Young Adults are not this boring
I guess I’m among the minority of professional and amateur critics in finding this movie utterly boring. My wife is among that minority as well. There was one dramatic scene that had me wake up momentarily, but both before and after it, I struggled to keep my eyes open – and we went to an early evening showing. Watching someone struggle with depression isn’t particularly interesting unless said depression causes them to do something other than mope around for 90 minutes. I didn’t find any of the characters likable, and the Patrick Wilson character was basically a contradiction, seemingly willing to participate in an affair one minute then completely insulted by the idea in another. Why would he even agree to speak privately with whatsherface at the party? It also made absolutely no sense that whatsherface was even invited to the party. Supposedly the wife did it as an act of pity, but she couldn’t have possibly known anything about whatsherface’s private life since it had been years since anyone had seen her (and there was no indication she had been tabloid fodder). And it also made no sense that whatsherface was suddenly confiding in a classmate she barely even noticed in high school some 20 years ago.

It’s not often I come out of a movie feeling completely duped by the reviews, but this is one of those rare instances. I have no idea what anyone finds entertaining here.
