"Young Adult": LA Times Critics' Choice Award from Betsy Sharkey:
Director Jason Reitman and writer Diablo Cody add their distinct light touch to dark comedy 'Young Adult,' with Charlize Theron and Patton Oswalt terrific as troubled beauty and sarcastic beast.
When it's done right, as it is in "Young Adult," there is something absolutely mesmerizing about watching a train wreck unfold on screen. When the wreck in question is a narcissistic beauty played to scheming, sour, downward-spiraling perfection by Charlize Theron, cringing is definitely called for, but so is laughter.
