A great movie for this generation to enjoy.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is Edgar Wright and Bryan Lee O'Malley's American- Canadian-Japanese-English thrill ride of a movie with a fitting soundtrack, striking visuals, intriguing characters, and a simple yet complex plot.
The movie follows Scott Pilgrim, a 23-year-old lovable loser and bassist for his and his friend's rock band, "Sex Bob-omb" in the mysterious land of Toronto, Canada. He starts dating a 17-year-old Chinese girl, but when the girl of his dreams, Ramona Flowers, starts to skate into his life, he goes after her instead, but love always hurts - and this time I mean it. Scott must fight Ramona's seven evil ex-boyfriends in order to win her heart. Rock music, video game-like battles, and vegans ensue.
But the movie isn't for everyone - especially an older audience. It's intended for the younger generation, especially those that grew up on classic video games, the movie's littered with references to Nintendo's cult game series "The Legend of Zelda", which is also my favorite game. Most older viewers won't find the movie appealing but to the marketed audience it's definitely a great film.
My only complaint is that in the first 15-25 minutes the movie kind of jumped in on the story. Events were happening so fast it was sort of hard to understand, but about 30 minutes in you realize it's because Scott is in a dream-like trance because of Ramona, and the movie slows down.
All in all, if you're a major comic book, movie, or video game geek, and if you're young enough to appreciate it, you will love this movie a lot. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't gained a cult following, as this is only one of four mediums of the Scott Pilgrim franchise. Definitely check them all out when you get a chance.
