Michael Cera, practically the poster-child for this strain of hip comedies, plays yet another awkward teen looking to win the girl, but like the film itself, he’s spinning his wheels a bit.

Cera's best work since ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT
The collision of adolescent hormones and parental folly, hardly new cinematic territory, gets a bracing absurdist slant in Youth in Revolt.
Cera and his gifted comic co-stars elevate the mediocre source material into a semi-iconic coming-of-age story.
