Easy A
Easy A is a high school comedy starring Emma Stone in her biggest role to date. Emma was great in her smaller roles from Superbad or Zombieland, but this film rests completely on her shoulders. As Olive Penderghast, she plays an ordinary high school girl that gets caught up in a web of lies that eventually starts to affect the lives of other people.

Vampires Suck
Vampires Suck sucks. Seriously. Don’t go see this movie. Don’t support this type of filmmaking. Don’t waste your money. And, if you refuse to listen, don’t say I didn’t warn you. You can read further if you want more detail, but that’s really all you need to know.

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse
Eclipse is the third film in the Twilight Saga, based on the book of the same name by Stephanie Meyer. Like the second film, New Moon, it presupposes that you have knowledge of the preceding movie (or the books) in order to fully understand the events as they unfold onscreen. Some of the characters in this series are supernatural beings.

Kick-Ass
Kick-Ass. It’s an awkwardly-titled film. And it seems to be a movie without a target demographic. The trailer makes it seem like a comic book movie for kids, but the R rating implies that maybe it’s not for kids. (I can tell you right now: it’s not for kids, but it was a comic book.

Whip It
Whip It is a coming-of-age story adapted from the novel Derby Girl by Shauna Cross. It is also the directorial debut of Drew Barrymore, who appears as the character Smashley Simpson and seems to be having an absolutely wonderful time whenever she is onscreen.

Deadgirl
Finally, someone has created a film to answer the age-old question: would you still have sex that hot girl if she were a zombie? As it turns out… wait, what? That’s not an age-old question? …Seriously? …Are you sure? Well, if this movie wasn’t created in order to answer a meaningful and important question then it must be some sort of cruel joke.

The Twilight Saga: Twilight
During the holidays my little sister forced me to go see Twilight with her and I was fully prepared to hate it. I actually expected to hate it based on several things that I had seen in the trailer. There’s an event that couldn’t possibly escape attention (or scrutiny) and some ridiculous tree climbing, but the worst part is the vampires outside during the day.

Juno
I can't stand Sunny D. I'm more of an orange-tangerine Odwalla kind of a guy, but I won't hold that against Juno. She's too oddball-adorable to have anything held against her!
