Wrote a Review for the Emma Stone picture Easy A. Got nothin better to do, so i'm posting it here, plus a really hot picture of Emma Stone, because she's really hot. Even her names is hot...
Emma Stone
anyways...Easy A review from the Film Club group:
Full Disclosure: I think Emma Stone is one of the most beautiful, charming, and sexiest actresses out there right now. She is constantly funny, and always has perfect timing. And did I mention she's fucking sexy?
With that said, I was really dissapointed by this movie. Basically, she made it watchable, and that's about it. Too many 90210 style Calfornia High School cliches, and too many sterotypes. The uber-religous girls, the cool teacher, the parents who, really, aren't parents at all but friends who are there in a role only to support the kid that in real life, most likely any way, would never be that emotionally mature, and the handsome boy who understands how hard she's got it. Nothing about this movie suprised me, but it was full of hilarious one-liners. but after awhile, i lost interest. Funny people, funny situations, but overall, not a funny movie. Emma Stone carried this very unoriginal comedy (Thomas Haden Church certainly helped, but I felt he and his character were under-used). Pretty much all my praise goes to her, but I may be biased because of how amazing I thought she was going into this. But, she did have great roles in Superbad and Zombieland, two comedies I loved. So, I don't think its a stretch to think she could carry a comedy on her own. I hope to see alot more of her.
Side-note: why do so many high school comedies have parents who are essentially non-parents, and expect us to believe the kid would turn out all right? Looking back, the most accurate portrate of a non-Parent to a troubled kid in high school in a comedy was Christian Slater's father in Heathers, and that kid tried to Columbine the school!!! Not that every kid with a bad/poor/less-than-qualified parent will create a terror child, but it kind of bugs me that parents in these movies (Mean Girls, She's All That) have kids who are just so damned smart and so well-equipped to deal the the troubles of life after years of, seamingly, neglect, so long as they give a two-minute speech that teaches a lesson. I know its only a movie, but jesus....really? Still? ugh...
anyways, here's Motrhead, because I can:
ahh, the Young Ones. My first introduction to Lemmy. not a bad start i guess...
Cheers.
