Easy A

This is a movie review I've been wanting to write for almost a year now. About a year ago this movie was in my suggested movies section on Netflix. I started watching and got maybe twenty minutes into it before I had to pause it and leave. I didn't pick it up for a week and when I signed in to Netflix the movie had been deleted from the entire system. Not until today did I get to see this movie again and I took my chance and started recording. Easy A is a "spinoff" of the Novel and Movie "The Scarlet Letter" In which a woman is accused of Adultery and is ostrasized by the entire village. This movie is a more modern take of it. This girl, Olive accidentally started a rumor that she had lost her V-Card and it just spins wildly out of control. She starts taking offers to start rumors that she slept with certain people thus boosting thier popularity and keeping up her charade. It's a good movie with some twists and jokes and so much more. To me, this movie is an Eight and a half out of Ten. Great movie, I'm not sure if it's back on Netflix but if you get the chance to watch it or rent it, take that chance.
