Easy A - Blu Ray Review
Easy A
Rating: M
Released by Sony Home Pictures
The teen comedy genre gets a welcome shot of life with this new film,
loosely based on the infamous book The Scarlet Letter.
Emma Stone is Olive Penderghast, who finds her world changed when
she's caught up in a lie.
After avoiding a
friend's camping trip for a weekend, Olive's badgered into confessing that she

Easy A rocks because of a smart, sharp script and a star making turn

Clarkson seal the deal - and make it a joy to watch again and again.
Extras: Gag Reel, Audition footage - commentary. The Blu Ray has pop culture
references, movies of the eighties, the making of and a pop up trivia.
Rating: 8/10
