This one was no different.Youth In Revolt is about that first time of falling in love. It's so easy to relate to. And it's just so much fun watching Cera's character evolve from being a boring boy into his imaginary, cooler and more confident self, Francois. It's in all of us.Justin Long came in perfectly as the rebellious elder brother who's "made it out". And Portia Doubleday was spot-on as the bad good-girl next door.All the chaos in the movie were done in a quiet manner instead of being explosive, which I appreciate a lot. The jokes too were very subtle, you just might miss it if you're not paying attention.Zach Galifianakis, Steve Buscemi and Ray Liotta all came in for some memorable, great scenes.
