Absolutely everything I expected, a cult classic on the way!

Rating: 9/10 (20 August 2010)

I was so lucky to get a ticket to the pre-screening of this movie on my birthday, and from the first 5 seconds (the 8-bit Universal logo), I knew I was in for an enjoyable ride. I had read the comic books, which are great, so I (sorta) knew what I was going to see, and I got all my expectations fulfilled. Though the movie itself looks and feels exactly like a comic book, the movie takes different turns than the comic, for example, all the battles in the movie are different. It's completely stuffed with geeky references, and is absolutely the funniest film I've seen this year. Though I strongly recommend that you read the comic before seeing it, or else you might be completely lost. I can't possibly think of any director that would turn this comic into a better movie, Edgar Wright has just the amount of craziness needed. Overall, a total nerd-gasm, if you read the comic, or if you're a geek looking for a pleasant afternoon, quit WoW, get off your lazy ass, and GO SEE SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD! It's totally worth the money and time! (By the way, I'm not happy with this movie only placing 5th in the USA, this should(and can) be a cult classic on the way!)
