Easy A

Director Will Gluck delivered a winning comedy without falling in the trap of many before him who tried and failed to replicate the comedies of John Hughes which the film inspires to and pays homage. A false rumor has hilarious consequences for a clean-cut high school student. Gluck and writer Bert V. Royal manage to make a funny film with substance with a breezy pace that's refreshing and rewarding. Emma Stone delivers a star-making performance with an stellar supporting cast including Patricia Clarkson, Stanley Tucci, Thomas Haden Church, Amanda Bynes, Lisa Kudrow and Penn Badgley amongst others.
