I have tried so hard to like this.

Rating: 1/10 (10 July 2011)

This film is OK. But very flawed and un-loyal to the book(s).
In this film Micheal Cera was not good. He is a goofy, lost and ugly person, he doesn't look at all like Scott Pilgrim in the book. Scott Pilgrim was a funny, handsome young man. In the film he just irritated me.
Ramona Flowers was attractive but she was just so moody and unlikeable.
Now before I deviate off to the characters let's talk about the flaws. In the evil ex Todd fight it is shortened greatly and is missing bits. Like the extremely funny store chase in the book. The store imploding. Todd cheating on Envy and Ramona pulling out her hammer on Envy instead of the lesbian ex and the college scene doesn't exist.
The first 15 minuets of this film were promising but then it blew off the rails.
