Addicting like an NES game

Rating: 10/10 (13 September 2010)

Every once in a great while, there comes a movie that makes you so thankful that you saw it in the theaters. Midst "Inception" and "Kick-Ass", "Scott Pilgrim" easily falls into this category for 2010.
I will admit. The movie has maybe one or two slight problems with it....in fact....they are so small, and somewhat meaningless, that they don't take anything away from the film at all. But even if you decided to dwell on these small imperfections, you must also admit that the movie is such a mental and visual feast. There are so many working parts to this picture, the cinematography, the editing, the soundtrack, and each of them is well oiled and moving at full speed.
Me being a prime candidate of the "Y" generation, i cannot remember the last time a movie made me recall my childhood on countless occasions. Mainly due to the never ending references and musical scores to classic NES and SEGA games dubbed in the background. It was enough to give me goosebumps.
Very seldom do i walk out of theater feeling more than satisfied. But that was just the start. The movie is like an addicting drug. After a few days, you really begin to flashback in your mind the funny cheesy dialog, the great music, and awesome cinematography. After a while, you can't seem to get it out of your brain......much like an old school NES game. Can't wait for the Blu-Ray
