Easy A Movie Review
Easy A 7/10
If high school sucked for you, just be glad you didn't go to Ojai North High during the age of text messaging. Ordinarily, I would have stayed far away from this sort of movie. But after hearing the buzz about Emma Stone's performance, I decided to check it out. And I'm glad that I did. Emma Stone is a bona fide star who has a certain edginess mixed with girl-next-door appeal, like Lindsay Lohan before the coke. Her John Hughes-inspired random musical number is a nice homage. The movie is hilarious and is among the best in the genre since "Mean Girls". It's a cautionary tale about how precious one's privacy and reputation are and how even the perception of indecency is sure to ruin you in the digital age.
