Bills Reviews For Short Attention Spans

Rating: 7/10 (18 February 2019)

I don't know why it is, but no matter how old I get I can still identify with high school teen movies. Maybe it's because I liked my childhood, but wish I'd done more in high school. Maybe it's because I never kissed the first girl I ever had a crush on. I guess I'll never know, but I always have a soft spot for these types of movies when they're well done, and this one is. Emma Stone stars as a high school senior with a heart of gold. She tells an innocent lie when pressured by her best friend, and from that her inability to say no gets her a reputation she does not deserve. It was a really fun, and funny movie. Maybe not really laugh out loud, but lots of reminiscing smiles. The cast is great all around, and the film is one you'll want to revisit after you've finished your John Hughes collection. Enjoy.
