YOUNG ADULT…what do I say about this one. Well, for starters…It was a total let down for me. I really had high hopes for this one.

Charlize Theron is hot and kicks ass as usually. Patton Oswalt was funny. It was just the movie. It you haven’t seen it yet – it’s a pretty dark comedy. See – Charlize Theron plays this author – - she writes ‘Young Adult’ novels – - one day, she gets an email – - her ‘X ‘ high school boyfriend’s announcement…their baby’s birth (yep, he’s married)…who happens to be very happy by the way. BUT – for some reason – - she decides she needs to go back to her old town and rescue him from his WIFE and BABY DAUGHTER. (LOL) Once she gets there – she runs into a few people from H.S. and that’s where it gets little nuts.

I did see this movie with two girls and they liked it – they thought it was cute. I think the only reason that liked it more than me was – - THEY COULD RELATE TO IT. This movie definitely shows how woman can be a little delusional. (LOL) Especially when it comes to men OR boys! (LOL)

LADIES. Is this worth checking out with your girlfriends? Ahhh…maybe wait till it comes out on DVD. Cut some cheese, pop open some wine, and watch YOUNG ADULT. (LOL)

GUYS. I would stay away. Maybe place this on your Netflix Que – Charlize Theron IS in it and she’s beautiful…even when she’s hungover – she’s STILL hot.

I give YOUNG ADULT…3 out of 5 POPCORNS.

Oh, I almost forgot – - was I the only who saw this – - -but – -  WHO WAS WALKING THE DOG WHEN ALL THIS WAS GOING ON?! (LOL) That poor little dog must have been shitting everywhere in that hotel room. (LOL)
