Olive is an unnoticed high school girl until one day when she decides to help out a friend and pretend she "did it" with him but really didn't. Now the word has spread and more guys want in on the action and soon Olive has a full fledged business going. But of course these things have a way of coming back and biting. Although a modern day retelling of the Scarlett Letter, Easy A is also a parody on 80's teen comedies.
This film is not only funny but it also has a good moral tale about what happens when you spread lies. It successfully bridges the gap between teen comedy and parody without being ridiculous. It's a film that takes us back to the 80's and raises those ideas of how we wish life was more like a film. And Emma Stone is perfect in this role. When it comes to casting, this film was cast just right. It's super fun. It does slow down a slight bit at a couple points but not enough to lose interest. All in all Easy A is a well worthwhile film to see.
