Perks of Being A Wallflower



This movie has been all the buzz. It is a movie i had wanted to see for a very long time and everyone i knew didn't want to see it. I finally met up with an old friend and we went and watched  this and it was everything you are looking for in a movie. The term emotion rollercoaster is thrown around so much that is what this movie is. The story is about a kid who is trying to make friends after a very tragic accident changed his life. He's not looking for sympathy just for a place to belong. It takes you to all the places that are wrong with high school, peer pressure, alcohol drug use and much much more. Logan Lerman plays an amazng Charlie, and Emma Watson is magical playing in her first role since book worm Hermione Granger in Harry Potter. It is a movie that will have you leaving the theater talking about it. This to me is THE best movie of 2012. Must see and i give it 10/10.
This of course is an adaptation of the critically acclaimed book "Perks of Being A Wallflower" that is written through a series of letters from the main character Charlie. The book dives more into detail about the struggles Charlie deals with on a daily basis. This is a book for the ages and the messages relayed in this book go far beyond high school! I cannot say enough about this movie and this book only that if you read one book and see one movie make it this book and this movie.
