Continuity mistake: After Olive has been to the principal's office, when she and Rhiannon are walking to their car, in the front-on shot they are leaning on each other. But in the immediately following shot from behind, they are standing about a foot apart.

4.5/10.Thomas Hadden Church saves this from being a total disaster.If not for his solid performance this would be even worse.Emma Stone, prior to The Amazing Spider Man franchise, shows she can be bland even when she's the lead.This is a terrible idea as modern audiences wouldn't get the idea of The Scarlet Letter in a modern movie anyway.Amanda Bynes and Lisa Kudrow also match her in blandness in this, a "So bad it's good to watch to laugh at."

Olive Penderghast: Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80's movies? I want John Cusack holding a boombox outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawnmower with Patrick Dempsey. I want Jake from Sixteen Candles waiting outside the church for me. I want Judd Nelson thrusting his fist into the air because he knows he got me. Just once I want my life to be like an 80's movie, preferably one with a really awesome musical number for no apparent reason. But no, no, John Hughes did not direct my life.
Trivia: At the beginning of the movie, Olive wonders why her life can't be more like an '80s movie, including Sixteen Candles. In the car with Todd, when they're - SPOILER ALERT! - talking about kissing each other, the song playing in the car is a rendition of "If You Were Here," the song playing near a similarly romantic scene in Sixteen Candles.
Question: Why didn't the teacher get fired after being caught sleeping with a student? In most cases a teacher wouldn't be able to be at that school whether he is of age or not, I don't think parents would like the thought of a teacher sleeping with students is still teaching at that same school and her husband is a teacher as well.

Answer: I don't believe she was ever officially caught seducing a student, her husband found but never told. He wants a divorce, and he knew she would agree to any settlement to keep it quiet.
