Emma Stone is now one of my favorite actresses

Rating: 8/10 (9 August 2011)

When this movie first came out almost a year ago, I didn't think about it. I didn't plan on ever watching it, I had heard good things about it, but I just thought it was a chick flick. When in fact the movie is more of a romantic comedy, and a funny one at that, I'm still not sure if I liked this or Date Night more, but both were very good movies.
The film does feel much like an 80's movie, mostly John Huges movies like Ferris Bueller, Breakfast Club, as well as others. Now I was born in the 90's, but I do have a love for 80's films, like Back to the Future, Star Wars 5 and 6, and the John Hughes movie's I've seen. And this definitely brought that same style.
Emma Stone is brilliant, this is the only movie I've seen her in so far, but she is now one of my favorite actresses, that is how good she was. But for me, Amanda Bynes stole the show, I loved the Amanda Show, and she is definitely just as witty here.
Well there are some jokes that fall flat, and it may seem like it's trying to hard to be like 80's high school movies than it's own movie, I still found myself loving most of it.
