Young Adult

Review: Young Adult

Every time I watch an American high school movie, I always wonder what happens after the prom, after the geek gets the girl, after the kids save the Rec Centre. How people's school lives affect the rest of their adult lives interests me way more than their pointless playground antics, and the fact the credits always roll before you get to see the characters venture into the big, wide world is always frustrating. Anyone who's ever stumbled upon their school bully on Facebook and secretly revelled in their shit life will get a kick out of Young Adult; a movie that shares my fascination with the fragile effect of popularity at an early age.

Movie maths with Charlize Theron

Charlize Theron has two fantastic looking new movies out next year, Young Adult and Snow White And The Huntsman. Add them both together, and what do you get?
