‘Easy A’ Movie Review
Screen Gems released a new comedy/action movie called “Easy A” into theaters a couple of months ago. I just got done watching it,and I agree with the top critics’ positive reviews on this one. It was great.
Emma Stone should be a comedian because she was hysterical in this movie. Her and good ole Amanda Bynes really brought some good drama and comedy. The movie stars: Emma Stone, Penn Badgley, Amanda Bynes, Thomas Haden Church, Patricia Clarkson, Cam Gigandet, Lisa Kudrow, Malcolm MacDowell, Aly Michalka, and Stanley Tucci.
The movie revolved around character Olive who finally gives into her friend’s crazy desires for her to tell her she finally slept with a college guy. Soon enough,the rumor spreads quickly throughout the entire school. Then,all of a sudden,Olive goes from being unnoticed all of the time to being constantly stared at and whispered about. It also doesn’t sit well with self righteous Christian freak Marianne who’s always telling Olive she needs to beg God for forgiveness.
Nothing stops there. Olive eventually helps out her gay friend named Brandon from continuing to get picked on by pretending to have sex with him. From that point, the rumors got worse,but Olive embraced them,and continued to help create more of them by taking offers from other guys. As the hype of her being easy continues to perpetuate,she plays the role very convincingly by wearing skimpy outfits with the letter “A” sown into them.
Towards the end,one final event makes her want to set the real record straight. I thought the movie was very funny as it included scenes,which featured Olive making fake sex noises with Brandon,lots of quick,witty remarks,Olive’s mother revealing that she was a slut in high school,and more.
The laughs just never stopped in this flick. It was never dull,and kept me extremely entertained the whole time. That Emma Stone is a great actress. This movie made me a fan of hers. It was great to see Amanda Bynes back on the big movie screen . She was hilarious as well. Penn Badgley did a real good job as the cool,low-key guy named Woodchuck Todd. If you want to giggle hard,go watch this movie. I gave it a great “A+” grade.
