Easy A (2010)

I really and truly believe that Hollywood has it's new it girl and her name is Emma Stone (Zombieland). I have truly enjoyed every movie that I have watched that she has starred in. From House Bunny, to Superbad, Ghosts Of Girlfriend's Past, and even The Rocker. She stars in this movie about a girl named Olive, who is absolutely a nobody and just wants to be noticed. So, she lies about losing her virginity and the rumors start flying around the school. She admits to a kid named Brandon (Dan Byrd), who happens to be gay and can't take getting picked on because of it. So, he asks Olive to lie about having sex with her and in turn he pays her with a gift card. Things are spiralling out of control as what Olive thought was helping her starts to back fire on her. Her performance wasn't the only one to talk about being brilliant, Stanley Tucci (The Lovely Bones) and Patricia Clarkson (Shutter Island) do a terrific job as Olive's very liberal parents and you truly believe that this is the way things are in Olive's home and hence it explains her personality. I truly believe that you should give this movie a chance because it's a wild ride of emotions that run wild in this film and Emma Stone is hot. The movie also stars Amanda Bynes (She's The Man) as a Jesus freak, Malcolm McDowell (A Clockwork Orange) as the prinicpal, Lisa Kudrow (Friends) as a Guidance Counselor, Thomas Haden Church (Spiderman 3) as a teacher and Lisa Kudrow's Husband, and Alyson Michalka (Phil Of The Future) as Olive's best friend Rhiannon. Seriously, check out this movie and with that said  I give Easy A an A.
