    The Spectacular Now

    For a movie with such an awful title (I could not even remember it when I was telling the cashier what movie I wanted to see), this was completely amazing (hah! I didn't say spectacular!) So soon after seeing PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER, I was not sure I was ready for another coming-of-age senior high movie, but this was even better! My wife and I went through all the emotions (almost) while watching this, at times clapping and cheering, at other times screaming NO at the big screen (note: this never happens to us, we were completely enraptured in this film) Shailene Woodley is incredible as innocent and happy little Aimee Finecky. I was floored repeatedly at how effectively she sold the character as being so happy-go-lucky but believeably so. The movie is just very, very real. It's quite an achievement and I think it's possibly destined for greatness. I really liked it. It's an excellent movie and very much a must-see.
