Scott Pilgrim vs. the world is a movie based on a comic book series and inspired by classic video games. So you can imagine that this
movie will be quite unique.
The movie takes place in Toronto Canada, and it follows a 23-year-old base player in a small-time band. Scott is pathetic in every way imaginable, but one day, he meets Ramona Flowers, a girl who is awesome in every way imaginable. But there is a catch: if he wants to be her boyfriend, he has to defeat her seven evil exes.
The movie follows a video game format where Scott has to constantly battle more powerful opponents in surprisingly well-choreographed action sequences. There are fantastic visual effects and the fight scenes are superior to ones in most action or kung-fu movies. On top of having to take on Ramona’s evil exes, Scott also has to constantly participate in band battles and deal with his own ex-girlfriends. So the movie never gets boring.
Bottom Line – Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is a hilarious, action-packed movie about self-discovery. I enjoyed it from start to end. I would recommend this movie to anyone 14 and above. I give it a 9/10.
