Brilliant cult, comic book movie that hits its target audience on the dot!

Rating: 10/10 (22 August 2010)

Seriously? Reading some of these reviews (I started from 1* upwards to see what people actually thought) it's become apparent that people have totally missed the point in this film. The world that constantly crops up to these imbeciles is 'emo'... How the hell is this film emo? Its fun, witty and action packed to the brim. The only reason I didn't give it a 10 is purely because of how the ending slightly differs to the better comic book original.
Cera does a great job as Scott. I had my doubts as 99% of Cera's roles are the same character... he really changed his ways for this. My hats off have to go to Winstead who plays Ramona... just fantastic. And wow, did she look good.
I'm not one to waffle so I'll clear things up quickly. This is a great movie. Don't listen to the idiots who just don't get it, I expect they won't get any of the music or cult references either. These same people probably liked Kick-ass but again, not get the quirky little cult jokes (as a brit seeing Durham Red on a poster in Kick-Ass made me laugh and be proud at the same time). One review for this film said something on the lines of 'It focuses too much on video games yet never mentions Scott been into video games' ... I laughed at this.. again missing the point. He's not imagining the video game stuff.. It's that world, that creation of Bryan Lee O'Malley.
If you have read the Scott Pilgrim book series, you WILL adore this film. It does it justice. If you haven't read them or never read a comic or played on video games in your life, and/or are over the age of 35 and have no imagination... then avoid it because your only putting on stupid reviews that make no sense.
If you have any social and cult awareness, you will love it. Just... go see it... see it twice. Pre-order the blue-ray. Make them some well deserved money (seen as the terrible movie Expendables stole it all in the US)
