Review of Easy A (2010) by Afm185 — 21 Jun 2020

It’s really good. As a comedy it’s not the most funny thing ever, but that’s not what it tries to be all the time. It’s almost just as much a drama. And I really liked the dramatic bits. The entire thing is super well written, they almost always get what they’re going for.

I love the characters in this, especially Olive and her parents. She’s so real and clever I love it. The story is engaging and I was looking forward to see where it’d go, but the answer to that is more or less spoiled by the start.

There are some cringey moments, one part I really did not like, some character choices that just didn’t make any sense when you take into account who they set them up to be, but I’d say most of it is very enjoyable.
