'Easy A' Movie Featured Tons Of Good Laughs & Drama

By Mike Stack


Screen Gems recently came out with a new comedy/action flick titled "Easy A" into theaters a while back. I finally got around to watching it,and I agree with the top critics' positive opinions on this one. It was an excellent film.

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 film focused on Olive (Emma Stone) who,one day, gives into her friend's intense desires for her to tell her she finally got it on with a college guy. Soon enough,the rumor spreads rapidly throughout the whole school. And,all of a sudden, Olive goes from being unpopular most of the time to being always stared at and talked about. It also doesn't go over with self righteous Christian freak Marianne (Bynes) who constantly tells Olive she needs to beg for forgiveness from her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

The craziness doesn't stop there. Eventually, Olive helps out her gay friend Brandon (Dan Byrd) from continuing to get picked on by giving the illusion of having sex with him at a wild party. From there, the rumors strengthened,but Olive embraces them,and continues to help make them even stronger by taking offers from more guys. As the hype of her being a whore continues to spread,she plays the role in convincing style by wearing sexy outfits with the letter "A" on them.

Towards the end of the movie,one final moment makes Olive want to set the real record straight. I think the film was extremely funny. It included scenes,which featured Olive making fake sex noises with Brandon,lots of fast,witty comebacks,Olive's mother saying that she was a slut in high school,and more.

The comedy just never stopped coming in this film. It was never boring,and kept me very entertained the entire time. Emma Stone is a jewel of an actress. This movie made me a fan of hers for sure. It was good to see Amanda Bynes back on the bigscreen. She was funny as well. Gossip Girl star Penn Badgley did a good job as the cool,mellow guy named Woodchuck Todd. If you wanna laugh really hard, check out this flick. I gave it an easy "A+" grade.
