Movie review: The perks of being a wallflower

Genre: Drama and Romance

The movie is about maturity issues that teens usually encounter like drugs, sex, alcohol usage and identity crisis.Basically, the perks means becoming more cheerful or interesting. A wallflower is something like a person who is unpopular and shy, lack of partner (dictionary.com)

The movie focuses on teenage life, on how they live and how they handle things on their own. The movie is able to bring out the reasons why some teens do things which is definitely inappropriate to their age.

The Perks is a type of movie that you will enjoy because can really relate to its theme. All issues being tackle in the movie are more on the highs and lows of growing up. It does not only take one side of teen age life. It also shows the things adults should understand about teens and teens should learn in order to grow as a better person. To know the great difference between growing up over growing old.

However, there is no really a very intense plot like other movies that also based from best selling and popular books like Harry Potter and Twight.

I'm very happy I'm able to watch this movie myself. The main character may not be a typical role model from some, but I still believe that what and how he shows himself is still ok. What really matters to me is how he teaches me to be true to myself.

And the most important moral I learn after watching this movie is --- what are the things in life that should be prioritize and what  really matters to you as a person.
