Good Rom-Com

Rating: 7/10 (18 November 2012)

I'm not a massive fan of this genre but occasionally a Rom-Com comes along that is worth watching for the normal guy. This is one of those films.
The plot is pretty standard but it is really the performance of Emma Stone that lifts this above the standard Rom-Com. She is captivating as the girl who tells a white lie that gets her reputation sullied throughout college, and really is a star of the future.
Although there are few surprises throughout the film there are enough funny moments and witty dialogue to stop the film meandering into the mundane. A pretty good effort.
