While you may underestimate this movie as a cheap cliche of a teen flick, but it makes it's mark with a big A.
Olive Penderghast (Golden Globe Nominee, Emma Stone) is just another one of those invisible girls. She spends her weekends singing "Pocketful of Sunshine" in her room, and is pretty normal. Before this, she told her best friend that she was on a date that weekend and couldn't hang out with her family. When she returns home, she has to tell a lie to her friend who doesn't believe that nothing happened, even when nothing did happen. Christian extremist, Maryann, hears this rumor and convinces everyone that Olive is a floosy. With this, she's happy with her reputation, because she now has one. She helps guys out, allowing them to say what they want about Olive and their encounters. With this, it becomes clear that when the rumors become too much, she needs to come clean about everything that has been said, and not done.
This will be a very memorable teen comedy, like Mean Girls before it. It's smartly written, witty, funny, and greatly acted. Emma Stone was very deserving of the Golden Globe nomination for this movie. She was a comedic force to be reckoned with throughout the whole movie. As the plot takes twists and turns, it all comes together in the most unexpected ways.
This is Zoe, coming with a lot more. :)
