It wasn't brains that brought me here; I assure you that.

In the least eloquent way possible, I will describe this film as thus: a group of beautiful people, wearing shiny suits, sit around a large table and talk about finance for almost two hours.

Somehow, I really enjoyed it. I think it was the solid cast of actors I like watching, who managed to make the dullest of all financial talk a little easier to understand.

A is for Awesome.

Date: Saturday 20th October
Film: Easy A (2010)
Director:Will Gluck
Starring: Emma Stone, Penn Badgley, Thomas Hayden Church and Amanda Bynes
Running Time : 1 hour 32 minutes
Rating: 7/10

It's been a while since we had a good teen comedy, they've been thin on the ground since the brilliance of Mean Girls and, while Easy A isn't as solidly wonderful as Mean Girls, it still has more pro points than your average teen flick.

I think a lot of this can be attributed to a great cast, led by the supremely talented (and all round adorable) Emma Stone.

Yes, the storyline is predictable however the humour and the cast make it seem fresh. It's only downfall? Over playing this truly hideous song...

Worth checking out.
