I’ve just come back from a late-night viewing of Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. While the movie trailer makes it seems like a typical Michael Cera flick for bratty teens, the movie itself is filled with special effects & kick-ass fighting.
I wasn’t expecting much, but after I walked out of the theater I had to agree with the critics in this review- it’s probably the funniest movie I’ve seen all year!
It seems like everyone was confused as to what to think of this movie when it came out. With a budget of $70 million and only a profit of $30 mil so far, many would be quick to call it a flop. However, once it hits DVD, expect it to become a cult classic.
It’s been a while since I’ve been impressed with movies based on comics- especially since Marvel Studios is just re-hashing comic book adaptations. Call me crazy, but I can’t really see how the over-hyped Avengers movie could be more interesting than this flick.
