Easy A

Now here’s a teen flick with the sass and wit of old-school classics like Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and Clueless.

Instead of inane bitchiness between the cheerleaders, or the ugly girl who gets a makeover and consequently the football hottie, this film focuses on the striking Olive (Emma Stone), who decides to pretend she’s sleeping with one of her friends who just happens to be gay but doesn’t want anyone to know. Of course when a few other nerds and social outcasts hear what Olive has done, they ask her to do the same with them, instantly giving them the stamp of approval from the cool kids.

The downside is that Olive is labelled a slut, and the word spreads. Luckily though the plot doesn’t fall into the ridiculous at this point – it only gets funnier. A kick-ass addition to the teen movie hall of fame.

Rating: 4 outta 5.
