What a let down...

Rating: 5/10 (9 March 2013)

This much anticipated flick was definitely not all it was cracked up to be. After hearing rave reviews from indie rockers and Scott Pilgrim graphic novel fans, I thought I was going to see one seriously awesome film. I was wrong. The acting was far below par, although kept along the lines of Michael Cera's awkward underdog preferred character. The supposedly comedic lines were delivered poorly, falling flatly amidst the silent audience; I'll admit it had its small moments, however. Some were even audible "ha" worthy. Those moments were far and few between. I really wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone out of their teens that isn't heavily (and I mean HEAVILY) submerged into indie culture or does not have a tolerance for completely nonsensical films. It was truly ridiculous, with a bland plot line and bad acting. I wouldn't waste my time watching it for a second time, or spending any money on related products, such as the novels themselves. If they're anything like what the movie was, I am so not interested.
