Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World


SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD (2010) - Dec. 26, 2010 (Second Viewing)
Visually stunning and directed with a ridiculously kinetic style by Edgar Wright (who always manages to make sure that the style never overwhelms the viewer or overtakes the story), this was definitely a very good film, though I still don't think it's on the level of Wright's last two movies (particularly Shaun of the Dead).  I never quite had the emotional attachment to Scott Pilgrim and his chums that I did to Shaun and Ed, but this is still definitely a primo film, and more proof (in case anyone still needed it) that Wright is a serious talent.  ***1/2
