In this charming, critically acclaimed tale of rumors and reputation, Olive (Emma Stone), an average high school student, sees her below-the-radar existence turn around overnight once she decides to use the school's gossip grapevine to advance her social standing. Now her classmates (Amanda Bynes, Aly Michalka) are turning against her and the school board is becoming concerned, including her favorite teacher (Thomas Haden Church) and the distracted guidance counselor (Lisa Kudrow). with the support of her hilariously idiosyncratic parents (Stanley Tucci, Patricia Clarkson) and a little help from a long-time crush (Penn Badgley), Olive attempts to take on her notorious new identity and crush the rumor mill once and for all. Directed by Will Gluck.

It is a cute movie. Typical high school drama, with a funny take on virginity and losing it. Nothing over the top exciting, just a good laugh, with a decent story line. Could have had a little more substance to the story, none of the movie was surprising. Developed very quiclkly then struggled to keep up the intensity.
What's great about it: Funny
What's not so great: If you saw the previews, you saw pretty much the whole movie.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The film does not live up to the previews. Very slow developing story with no real rise to the climax. Its a nice story overall with some very nice scenes. Some sub plots develop with no reason or closure. Clooney is great as always, but the movie just left me saying "That was it?"
What's great about it: nice camera shots
What's not so great: storyline
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Passport 8500 X50 Red designed for the driving enthusiast, the Passport 8500 X50 delivers the best possible protection in its class. In test after test, the Passport 8500 X50 comes out on top. Digital signal processing (DSP) provides maximum range, with minimum false alarms.

I have owned this radar detector for a few years, best you can get. I owned others and they did not give the warning nearly as quick. I have on highway picked up radar at over two miles. The multiple modes allow you to customize it for your desire. Dims and blacks out for audio only mode. The mute on the cord is great. Very useful, but at times it may pick up too much. I had a problem using in certain vehicles causing the alert to go off every thirty seconds, but it seemed to be only certain vehicles. Dont leave it in the car during extreme heat. I always put it under the seat for protection but the heat caused it to malunction. I like the mount adjusts to right angle. Overall highly recomended. Just dont leave it in hot vehicle.
What's great about it: plenty of warning time, multiple modes
What's not so great: sometimes over sensitive, too much heat will damage
I would recommend this to a friend!
