The Perks of Being a Wallflower review

"But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. we can still do things. " A sensitive and at times funny film about Charlie (Logan Lerman), Sam (Emma Watson) and Patrick (Ezra Miller). The three friends encounter certain challenges along the way. One of the most touching growing-up films coupled with a very cool soundtrack. Performances were spotless. It felt like an 80's flick rebooted to fit the younger generation of the 20th century.

He struggles to get through each school day, and impressively continues to attend events like football games and dances all by himself, when most kids his age would probably sit it out at home, not wanting to deal ...

Great Performances by Lerman, Watson and Miller

Charlie is a 15-year old taking on his first year in High School. He struggles on making friends, until he meets Sam and Patrick who let him in their circle of friends.
***
Logan Lerman, Emma Watson, and Ezra Miller came in BIG on this movie, to begin with. These set of two actors and an actress deserve spot on most talented stars of the generation. They were able to give justice to their roles, and while I am watching the film, I did not find their characters hard to understand. I "like" the movie, I enjoyed it just fine. The only problem why I did not arrive to the point that this is actually a movie I must "love" was, the back story was not that strong (at least for me) that it played an important case on the present situation of the characters, specifically to Charlie.

Over-all, ...
