There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

It doesn't quite hit the mark. Emma Stone gives a great performance. Her charm is off the charts. Her parents are great. Her favorite teacher is also great. The movie somehow misses the mark. Maybe it's the needless religion bashing that turned me off. I don't know but it didn't help.

Olive Penderghast (Emma Stone) is a high school student who lies to her best friend Rhiannon that she has lost her virginity. The lie goes round the school and quickly she is regarded as a slut and soon Olive dresses like one.To prevent her gay friend Brandon from bullying, they pretend to have sex at a party while the others listen to their screams from outside the door. Later Olive helps out a fat friend by letting him say that he went out with her in exchange for some gift vouchers. Pretty soon a student who gets Chlamydia tells everyone he got it off Olive as it was the easier thing to do.However Olive's life spirals out of control as nobody sees the real her. Men just want to use her. Even her easy going parents are concerned about her.Easy A is the epitome of efficient writing. If you are a budding screenwriter or want to make your own movies, just make a careful study of it. It even wears its influences on its sleeves. Everything referenced to in this film, it will come back to later. As an example Olive is studying the book The Scarlet Letter at school. Well Olive gets branded as a harlot and she plays up to it by wearing even more revealing clothes with a big label A. Olive mentions 80s brat pack movies of John Hughes. At the end of the film there is a pointless song and dance number just like Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I did like the reference to Huckleberry Finn that would later come back like a boomerang.Easy A is fresh and amusing with charming performances from the cast, especially Emma Stone. However it is not as clever as it thinks it is and the wheels fall off as the film goes along. For a start I find it hard to believe that Olive is the only high school student who has had sex!Many of the characters are paper thin and one dimensional. There are lazy stereotypes of Christians but the worse is the one Indian high schooler who speaks with an Indian twang.So Hollywood film studios cannot have a second generation character of Indian origin who was born and raised in America in this day and age?

Olive, a normal college girl, accidentally spreads a rumor about her losing her virginity, being afterwards seen as an easy girl by everyone. With her new status, she starts acting like one, even helping out losers by lying about having slept with them, in exchange for money, coupons or any other financial benefit. As this new attitude advances, she becomes more and more hated and although she thought that covering something up wouldn't hurt anybody, she becomes an outcast. As a result, in order to reveal the truth, she invites the whole college to see a video podcast which might clear her name.It's an interesting idea, the one with which the movie starts, but after that, everything gets as boring as it is predictable. She gets a bad name and eventually she tries to set thing right and who knows, even getting a real date or boyfriend. I really enjoyed Emma's performance, but from my point of view, the whole movie was an extended typical college gossip, which left without contradiction or being played along, isn't going to get you anything good. A bit letdown in my opinion, from any perspective.
