Scott Pilgrim vs. the World

Energy and invention and audacity count for little unless you can sense something at its core - unless a film gives you something to feel - but there is zilch here. It's hollow.

Edgar Wright's Scott Pilgrim vs. The World adaptation cut its Adderall with pixie-stix...to gleeful, great success.

Full of fresh, sharp touches and nonchalantly brash performances, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World consistently hits the sweet spot.

It's fresh, funny, inventive and unique.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World becomes a fatal case of flash over substance. Pretty great flash, though.

Fitfully entertaining and sometimes brilliantly silly — just not really engaging, and occasionally objectionable.

Wright has constructed an extraordinary piece of entertainment. It’s unlike anything you’ve seen before.

Three movies are stacked into one… for those who can follow along and appreciate its quick draw, it is a generous offering. [Full review in Spanish]

11 years later, it remains the best video game movie ever and a top-shelf comic book movie, and one of Edgar Wright’s best movies.

This is a flashy filmic landscape of expertly choreographed fight sequences and bubble-written onomatopoeia splattered across frames.
