This movie really surprised me. I had never seen Emma Stone before this (I saw this before Zombieland) and she is awesome. The movie sounds kind of slutty (and it kind of is) even though she doesn't actually do anything. Olive (Stone) is a girl with a really good reputation. To avoid further abuse from her best friend (Alyson Michalka), she tells her that she "did it" with a mysterious guy (who isn't real). She and her friend's conversation is overheard by the most popular girl in school (Bynes) and Olive is quickly branded as a slut. She then decides that her life kind of parallels the novel The Scarlet Letter, so she decides to sew a letter A on her shirts and start helping nerdy guys by letting them lie about doing it with her. But, she eventually learns that being popular for being sleazy is not the same as being popular.
