not for everyone, but definitely for me

Rating: 10/10 (25 October 2010)

This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. The fast paced direction and witty one- liners make this an actual comic book movie, not just a movie based on a comic book. The second the movie starts, the viewer is bombarded with crazy sights and sounds. Video game- like music and hilarious banter between establishes what kind of movie this is. As the story develops, it gets more unpredictable and hilarious. Every single performance is perfect and hilarious, from Michael Cera as Scott to Kieran Culkin as Scott's gay roommate. The only problem with the movie is that it has a fairly specific target audience, and I can definitely see people outside that demographic finding this movie. Go see it if you're below the age of 30, enjoy video game references, don't mind ADDish editing, and enjoy indie rock music. If fit in the target demographic, you probably won't be able to describe how awesome it is.
