Jason Reitman continues his string of insightful, earnest dramedies with "Young Adult". His characters are usually very broken and insecure, much like Charlize Theron's Mavis, a thirty-seven-year-old young adult novelist trying to recapture the love of her high school sweetheart, who is now married with a newborn. Though you root against her, you feel for her as the lost, deluded human being she is.
