While his trailer trash parents teeter on the edge of divorce, sexually charged 14-year-old Nick Twisp sets his sights on dream girl Sheeni Saunders, hoping that she'll be the one to take away his virginity. His intelligence and hormones get him into all sorts of adventures.

Michael Cera adopts a mischievous alter ego in an attempt to reunite with his dream girl in a familiarly peculiar story.January 11, 2010
I love this new breed of dirty movie. It goes beyond leering, beyond sexism, to the core tension of a culture that ricochets between Puritanism and promiscuity. And it has in Michael Cera a sterling mascot.January 08, 2010
A sweet and slight and often charming coming-of-age tale.February 03, 2011
Playing on feelings and impulses that I'm sure we all relate to, a witty and playful portrait of teen love emerges out of a less exciting teen comedy.October 07, 2015
Miguel Arteta furnishes the film with fantasy sequences - such as one involving stop-motion miniature models - that are more contrived than inspired.February 05, 2010
The tone throughout is moderately quirky rather than full-on teen-flick vulgarian, bolstered by indie-cred cameos.January 08, 2010
A clever and often riotous burst of cynicism that pushes, let's face it, some pretty questionable ideas.September 17, 2012
An uneven story and crass comedy could leave viewers revolted.December 19, 2010
Story of "bad-boy" teen is funny, but also rough and raw.January 08, 2010
Youth in Revolt is a teen fantasy filled with lust, imagination, frustration and lots of laughs, artfully made and superbly played.December 30, 2010
Nick Twisp is no Scott Pilgrim, but this is another witty ensemble comedy that successfully reinvigorates that most benighted of genres, the teen film.January 08, 2010
Cera may be trapped in his unchanging persona, but no more than this picture is walled in by its sitcom conventions.
