When I first heard of this movie, I discarded it like many watching movie trailers on TV would. I thought to myself, this is just another low graded under-budget movie that someone is trying to pass off for a top-charts block-buster, and as a result later on when the movie was released into theaters I thought I was right. No one was fan- girl/boy the next day like people were for the hunger games, I didn't see people in the streets wearing shirts that had the movie title on the front, there was absolutely nothing the represent the existence of that movie. Now i'm the type of old school kind of person who likes words rather than people acting on a movie screen, that's why whenever a movie based on a book comes out I make a point of reading the book before I watch the movie so I could get all the true details from the book first, now one day in my English class we had have been giving a reading list assignment, and the assignment was to read one of the books on that list. The first book I saw on the list was The perks of being a wall flower and I thought the movie didn't look so great why would the book be any different but like I said before I like words, so I read the book. I read that entire book in less than 5 hours, it just kept sucking me in, every word every sentence I ate up until there was nothing left to read and i was sitting there in my room dumbfounded. That book had been the greatest thing i had ever read in my life, its such a soulful, rich, beautiful and truly magnificent read every thing about it was genius right down the last period. After reading the book I drove to the movie theater to watch the movie as well, and the film was also just as amazing as the book, it was all so promising with the right actors the right music the right everything. The perks of being a wallflower honestly is the best book and movie to ever come out in a long long time, sometimes I wish I could be whoever reading this review deciding whether or not to peruse this movie just so I could experience the excitement of it all once again. If you are still deciding whether or not to watch this film I highly encourage you to if your looking for something truly amazing and then if you want more the book would also be just as good for you as well.
