Impossibly entertaining

Rating: 8/10 (27 November 2012)

I think the people who reviewed this film negatively need to lighten up a bit. While this movie will probably not be remembered for decades to come as a pinnacle of film making (although with the internet's current obsession with it, I suppose anything is possible), it will leave you thoroughly entertained, and really what more can you ask from a movie? Michael Cera does a good job playing pretty much the same person Michael Cera plays in every movie he's in, except it feels way more at home in natural in a movie as amazingly weird as this. Kieran Culkin is incredible as Scott's gay roommate Wallace, and Jason Schwartzman is appropriately annoying as the main villain. Imagine the most insufferably arrogant hipster, and then multiply that by 10. You will laugh, you will gaze in amazement at the awesome fight scenes, and you will quote the movie for weeks on end, because this may be the most quotable movie of all time. So do yourself a favor and watch it. While history may not remember it, you certainly will.
