Admittedly, I'm a bit biased when it comes to Emma Stone. I think she's a downright marvelous actress. She's proven she can handle just about any material that is thrown at her and do so seemingly effortlessly. That being said, I was a bit wary and going backward in her filmography and checking out "Easy A". How could I fairly judge what seemed to be a teenage dramedy (Stone bias notwithstanding) in light of the material she'd taken on since her stellar rise to fame? Despite these misgivings, I took on the task because, hell, at least it wasn't her voiceover turn in Marmaduke, right?

The plot seems simple on the surface: A young girl's lie spirals out of control and she is labeled as more than promiscuous by her peers. In spite of this, she ardently (and selflessly) embraces the rumor and soon finds herself in a maelstrom of criticism and gossip that reveals more about those around her than herself in.

Lo and behold, I ended up pleasantly surprised at how utterly enjoyable and amusing "Easy A" actually turned out to be. My fears of it being shallow teen fodder were instantly cast away and I quickly found myself settling into the witty dialogue and, more so, its clever update of one of literature's classics "The Scarlet Letter".

Although the latter element was one of the film's selling points, it takes something special to make something as audacious as an update of a classic set of ideas and themes and have it work, much less prove relevant to the original work AND modern times. To top it all off, it does all this while never losing its own particular identity as a comedic film. It also admirably manages to delve deeply into many of aforementioned themes without being slavishly bound to them, a sin that would of the made the film woefully dreary.

Yes, "Easy A" is film that sets out to make a big statement about people's perception and the effects of social stigmas but, unlike, its inspiration, it doesn't martyrize its protagonist to do so, instead it smacks a smile on your face and gives you the two sides of the coin. Surprisingly, using teen movie tropes and archetypes end up servicing this goal exceptionally well and it was quite satisfying to see the movie turn expected circumstances on their head and do something unique with them.

Emma Stone as the defacto would-be Hester Prynn , Olive, possesses such a natural charm and timing that just oozes off the screen. She's a delight to watch as the snarky and smart lead and, really, it's hard to imagine the movie being as effective had someone with that much talent not filled that particular role. She really carries the movie on her shoulders. That's not to say that the rest of the cast are slouches. Quite the contrary, everyone is sharp and on their game here.

The filmmakers clearly had a great love of John Hughes movies and tones and tropes from those are also weaved into the film's tapestry that inform the viewer or pay homage to one of the greats of teen cinema. Though i wouldn't compare "Easy A" to a Hughes film as their ultimate intent and styles differ, I did find the references appropriate not only narratively but in the sense that much like a Hughes films there's a timeless feeling to this one. Indeed, "Easy A" has loftier goals but, more than that, it appeals to people of all ages despite its target audience. This is a movie that could easily be shown as part of a curriculum to inform students on the subtext of writing while never once boring them.

"Easy A" never sinks to comedic depths to get its laughs and expertly avoids a lot of the trappings of sub-par comedy films. Instead, it remains distinctly clever and subtle in its delivery and, for that reason, it will age fantastically. As I write this nearly a decade has passed since it's release and it remains fresh and prescient.

I'm glad to have watched and I'm glad to say that I'll be adding it to my rotation of movies that I'll watch again. It's a comfortable movie that way. I give Easy A a 8.5/10

I know that the 2010 film 'Easy A' (a remake of 'The Scarlet Letter' geared toward teenagers) received a lot of positive reviews, and is supposed to be really witty and sharp and clever and blah blah blah; what I don't understand is why. 

I ABHORRED this horrid excuse for a movie -- possibly even more so than 'The Interview' (my other Least Favorite Movie That I Watched in 2015).

It's movies like this whose an ugly reminder on how teenagers control everything nowadays, they turn horrible artists into best sellers and they turn horrible movies into successful popular cult "modern hits", and i can easily see their perspective "Oh my god, a movie about high school, we are in a high school", "Oh my god, it has Emma Stone, and she's so hot".

I mean i'm all for freedom of opinions but it makes me mad to see such low standards for comedy, Easy A is a horrible high school flick that wasn't funny at all. even horrible movies can make me laugh some times, this one, never, i wasn't even amused by it, i was just repulsed and annoyed and kept looking at my watch, it's a sorry excuse for a comedy sold entirely on Emma Stone likability, they didn't even bother to write a funny script, and they managed to have so many good actors, but never use that to make the movie better.

It start with Emma stone playing as a high school student, narrating her story to the audience, looking at the screen constantly, because, you know, what's the point of having Emma stone if she didn't talk to the audience. she basically tells the story on how she turned from a unknown student to the most popular girl in school to the slut that everybody hates, the story is told with little effort, horrible acting, no depth to characters at all, some horrible editing in which the actor is talking but when the angle change, you can see from the back of his head, that he's not talking, it reminded me of cheesy low budget sitcoms, it also had some very bad lip-syncing and the whole production looked very immature and mashed together in effortless kinda way.

The movie had so many comedy cliches, and so many high school cliches, like the inappropriate parents, the very supportive not-caring parents, the shallow best friend, ect... and the story wasn't interesting at all, it's even worse with the main protagonist as Emma stone played it too cool for her character, it was like she's very mature for a high school student, she wasn't even in the character, it's like she's playing herself, kinda Like George Clooney in 'Batman & Robin', and the script looks overly written, as if the writer wasn't actually writing it with a high school mentality, even worse, was some random lines slapped here and there to make cheap laughs, like Emma's father (Stanley Tucci) asking his adopted son, "so, where are you from", or some random inappropriate conversation between Emma and her mom at the end, it's all very not funny, and random.

As i said before the entire movie was based on the likability of Emma stone, they didn't even bother to invest in a funny script, or funny jokes or interesting characters, which means, if you like Emma, then you're going to adore everything she says, and you will think it's funny, and i like Emma stone, i just don't like the character she was playing, that's why the movie was not funny at all to me, furthermore, the movie never makes usage of the many respectable supporting actors and actresses like Thomas Haden Church, Malcolm McDowell, Stanley Tucci and Lisa Kudrow. the script made them all corny and bad or just not interesting, and Amanda Bynes in this movie, which takes the awfulness into a whole other level.

The movie didn't have the decency to have an original score, instead, they purchased a bunch of old songs and slapped them together which was so lazy and pointless, and it gives the impression of a cheesy teen movie, even though they tried to hide that sense.

Overall, it's very immature (yes, even for teenagers), lazy, with a horrible script, awful performances, and based entirely on Emma stone, and a bad example for teenagers, as the movie didn't address the whole point of the confession it based on.

This was such a good movie! I'm not really a fan of chick flicks but I make a HUGE exception for this one! The concept is just pure genius and the directing and scripting is that of a magician.

Since I kept hearing some really good things about this flick, I was really eager to check it out. Eventually, I thought it was not bad but not much more than that and my wife thought it was even actually pretty bad. On the positive side, Emma Stone was really good as she gave here her breakthrough performance. I also enjoyed the dialogues, even though they felt sometimes overwritten especially when the parents were involved. The main issue was that I didn't really care much about the story. I don't know, in Europe, or at least in France where I spent all my youth, in high-school, 90% of us lost their virginity between 14 and 18 years old and nobody made a big deal out of it. I mean, some of us were pretty promiscuous but they were no gossip because nobody really cared about what the others were doing because we had to take care of our own sh*t. After reading Roger Ebert's review, I understand that the whole thing was actually rather caricatural but it still doesn't change the fact that I didn't care much about the plot at all. Furthermore, I laughed a few times (my wife didn't laugh once...) but it is not like the whole thing was really hilarious at all. Still, even though it didn't blow me away, it remains a decent comedy and it is worth a look, especially if you like the genre.

It's really really good. It's very funny, entertaining and a feel good movie. One of the best movies I've seen in 2010.I really loved it. Hollywood should make films like this often.Love Emma Stone♥
