#14. The Perks of Being a Wallflower

489 Points | Votes: 34 | Peak: 1 (6 Times)

Directed by Stephen Chbosky
Starring: Logan Lerman, Emma Watson, Ezra Miller

Rotten Tomatoes: 85% | iMDb: 8.2 | Watch Trailer

"The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a heartfelt and sincere adaptation that's
bolstered by strong lead performances." - RottenTomatoes

"Another crowd pleaser, Perks of Being a Wallflower really connected to me, it's sweet, charming and quite
emotionally charged, and again, another one I'm struggling to find on sale in stores on blu-ray. " - Foggy

[Lehnhart]

Perks - wow, I'm surprised how high this is. I heard it was good, I just didn't expect it to be 14th

[jlou44]

Loved this movie!! Had it ranked at #3. Probably higher than most because of my age. I feel like an older crowd wouldn't take to it as easily.

[chrisron]

Well, I don't know what you consider an older crowd, but I'm 35 and have Perks at #1.

[jlou44]

I'm 23, wouldn't consider 35 old though haha. I watched it with my parents who are in their early 50s, and they didn't enjoy it as much as I did.

Yes, but it is also possible that he has other things to worry about in life than updating this at the moment. I refuse to complain about something not being timely considering the person is doing this for free for our benefit.

The reveals on these threads are always dragged on for forever and a day.

Please make the threads when you can compile all the results in one nice, easily readable result spread, or it's just an exercise in ego stroking.

Not interested, let me know when it's done.

[Hucksta G]

Thanks MarkJ, enjoying the results don't listen to the naysayers.

[Al_The_Strange]

I enjoy the slow unveiling. It's suspenseful!

My updated viewpoints:

30.) Lawless - not really interested
29.) Beasts of the Southern Wild - I juuuuuusssst saw this yesterday. Enjoyed it. Would have put it on my list, if only I watched it sooner.
28.) Flight - heard of it, might see it someday
27.) Dredd - #9 on my list. Kinda ticked it didn't make it closer to the top.
26.) The Raid - #8 on my list. Now I'm really ticked this didn't rank higher.
25.) Ted - still haven't seen
24.) Chronicle - just saw it yesterday. Probably also would have voted on it if I saw it sooner.
23.) Les Mis - still not interested
22.) Seven Psychos - should probably watch it.
21.) Wreck it Ralph - haven't seen, looks great though.
20.) 21 Jump Street - haven't seen
19.) Amazing Spidey - almost voted on it, but it got bumped off
18.) The Grey - haven't seen
17.) Hunger Games - almost made it at the bottom of my list, but it got bumped off. Funny, I didn't think people liked this one enough to rank it this high.
16.) Life of Pi - #6 from my list
15.) The Master - haven't seen
14.) Perks of Being a Wallflower - haven't seen
13.) Lincoln - Just saw it yesterday. Don't see the joy.
