Youth in Revolt Movie Review

Saw Youth in Revolt last night and it was pretty good. Well, the movie would have been so much better if I hadn't seen all the funny parts in the various commercials already. But I don't think of this movie as a comedy like 'Superbad' or 'The Hangover'; those movies blow this one out of the water in terms of comedy. This movie was good though because Michael Cera really got to expand his usual quirky awkwardness into quirky awkwardness with a French accent. He did it well though- I liked him as a badass. The dialogue was a little outlandish because there is no way 16 year old kids talk the way they did in the movie.





Overall, this movie is worth a viewing. Don't forget that Zach Galifianakis and Justin Long are in this movie and they both have great supporting roles.
We saw it as part of the $5 Club which I guess is the new $1 movies but with inflation. Jesse and I agree that the movie is a solid B or 4 Virgins Out of 5.
MellyButton Approved!
