Review - The Perks of Being a Wallflower

A movie about pain and friendships.
Starred by Emma Watson as Sam, Logan Lerman as Charlie, Ezra Miller as Patrick, and Nina Dobrev as Candace, Charlie's big sister.

Charlie just lost his best friend, Michael, just before he entered high school. Michael shot himself, and didn't left charlie a single note. So, charlie wrote him a letter, almost every day to tell him about his daily stories.
Entering high school could be challenging, especially if you didn't have any friend to talk to, particularly during lunch hour. Eating alone, makes you feel everybody is pitying you. Lonely, is probably the exact word.

One day, in a football game, Charlie made a friend with a senior named Patrick, which happens to be he has a step sister named Sam. In just moments away, Charlie feels happy since he finally made some friends where he finally doesn't have to eat lunch alone. Everything went smoothly, until an incident happen where he shows his special affection to Sam.

The story is simple, run smoothly between all scenes, its a great movie, with great songs slipped in every scene. The movie tells how human being will blocked every ugly, bad times in their life, and the brain will simply block it until you have insufficient space in your brain or triggers that will made everything burst out. Charlie is simply a poor child, and a very normal human being.

The movie also tells how we human, needs interactions to other people, a feeling that we're "accepted". We are a proper human being, if we fit in to our environment. Sometimes we made stupid things, stupid decisions just to feel "accepted". The movie tells so much stories in just 102 minutes.

I have to give credit a lot to Emma Watson, since she played soo well in this movie. She's just the charm of the movie. Beautiful, edgy and fragile in one place. Come to think of it, all the casts of Harry Potter, is a great actor/actresses. Gotta see Horns after this, maybe.

Well, I am a content viewer, I love this movie so much. I gotta say, I gave 4/5 stars for this movie! Cheers!
