Young Adult

A delusional, possibly alcoholic, has-been ghost writer (Charliize Theron) for a Young Adult novel series, "Waverly Prep", returns to her hometown to win back her former boyfriend (Patrick Wilson). Throw in Patton Oswald as a crippled geek into this dark comedy of mini high school reunion with sad and pathetic undertones which make it more disappointing than hilarious. Writer Diablo Cody tries to create a grownup version of "Juno", but it is not nearly as funny.
