Easy A Trailers

Olive, an average high school student, sees her below-the-radar existence turn around overnight once she decides to use the school's gossip grapevine to advance her social standing. Now her classmates are turning against her and the school board is becoming concerned, including her favorite teacher and the distracted guidance counselor. With the support of her hilariously idiosyncratic parents and a little help from a long-time crush, Olive attempts to take on her notorious new identity and crush the rumor mill once and for all.

I do not understand why people are fascinated in this girl's growth and development. The main character (Olive) makes these live video feeds about these embarrasing lies that grab too many people's attention. She felt like a very distant character to like. She also made these quirky remarks that were uncomfortable for me to watch. It was a bad decision to base this movie's plot on a lie and center it on her decision to reveal the truth. It's worth it to see it once but I wouldn't watch it again.

There are so many great things about this movie that it's easy to rewatch it at least once or twice a year. A great tribute to the outstanding John Hughes movies from the 80s, Easy A has a great cast, soundtrack, and pretty decent storyline... Despite the fact that in 2010 California a 17 year old having sex was earth shattering somehow. (And they could have definitely done without Lisa Kudrow and her goofy acting.) All the small irks are overclouded by the great things it offers. Emma Stone was brilliant as a Gilmore Girl talking Olive with quite possibly the best movie parents in the world (Patricia Clarkson and Stanley Tucci). High school is hard, no matter when, where, or why. The movie delivers the best advice that it will pass and finding a way to go through it is key.

After watching La La Land, I kind of fell in love with Emma Stone's performance (not Emma Stone... Well, maybe Emma too). Then looked for some of her old performances, which led me to this movie. I liked the narratives, the humor, and those minor plot twists. Other than that, the movie is averagely average. Nothing special. The kind of movie I forget when the screen is turned off ( I didn't forget Emma's face though, maybe because of La La Land). Unbiased rating : 6/10

It's a dumb teen movie with some good things. Emma Stone is one of them. She does a fantastic job in the movie. It was also interesting to see the decisions her character made that got her into the place where she ended up in (really hard to explain without spoiling).The other good part is the rumor spreading-sequence. I found that it was shot in an interesting way. There are lots also lots of bad parts. -It was a dumb teen with dumb teen movie clichés -The tone was comedic in some scenes but very serious in the next one -Lisa Kudrow was very annoying
