Lots of "Look at me!" not enough content

Rating: 4/10 (16 August 2010)

The unique video game style of the movie was intriguing; however, the total lack of chemistry between the main characters made the story line rather unbelievable at times. Michael Cera had more chemistry with Kieran Culkin than with Mary Elizabeth Winsted. I hope that isn't what love looks like otherwise, I guess its not all its cracked up to be. Michael Cera plays the same geeky gangly hero that he has been typecast into for what looks like the rest of his young adult life. The music is original and great, and Alison Pill and Kieran Culkin both provide great moments of their own. Unfortunately, like Scott Pilgrim, this move never gets past second base...
