“The most notable and memorable aspect of Young Adult’s awkwardly maligned narrative is Theron’s wickedly warped performance of a woman whose adulthood has veered into a mediocre failure. And her chemistry with the damaged Oswalt makes for some exceptionally comedic, bittersweet cinema. But any scenes not pairing Theron and Oswalt seem like the brakes are grinding.”
