Youth in Revolt
YOUTH IN REVOLT (2009) - July 25, 2010
A really well made and engaging film about a teenager who falls in love, and then creates a suave, criminal alter-ego to get back to her. The film is quite entertaining throughout, and features some really solid direction from Miguel Arteta. It also featured a bunch of memorable supporting roles from people like Ray Liotta and Steve Buscemi, and a really good lead performance from Michael Cera. I know Cera gets a lot of flack for having a distinctive persona and not changing much from movie to movie, but I think he's an engaging presence on screen. ***1/2
