IMDB

Based on the comic book that I could not read due to the art style, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is visually stunning. It is a good use of an insane amount of special effects.
Scott Pilgrim leaves his 17 year old Chinese girlfriend to start dating Ramona, a anime hipster girl with colorful hair. He has bitten off more than he can chew, when he finds out he must face her seven evil exes.
I really enjoyed this film. It perhaps was too overloaded with special effects and nerdy laughs, if anything. The fights are all a lot of fun and are reminiscent of fighting video games, anime and kung fu films. Lots of silly laughs and just generally a good time. I luckily got to watch this on my friend's 50 inch hd tv, which is how I'd recommend seeing it. Email me and I will give you her address.

8/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
