TIFF Review: Youth In Revolt

Michael Cera once again plays the unconventional "heart throb" in the upcoming Youth In Revolt from director Miguel Arteta. However, in this case it is his 'heart' that is throbbing for his trailer park girlfriend, Sheeni, played by the beautiful Portia Doubleday.



Constantly trying to 'be bad' and lose his virginity, Cera creates a French, mustachioed alter ego, played by himself. But his performance overshadows his...err...performance.



Lush forest scenes, teenage sexual angst and juvenile delinquency all have their place in this movie and the dialogue is hilariously and sarcastically delivered by Cera and Doubleday. With a stellar supporting cast; Steve Buscemi, Zack Galifianakis, Jean Smart and Justin Long, Youth In Revolt is sure to be a hit.
