Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World Reviews Are Rooting For The Dude

"Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" reviews seem to agree: the hyper-stylized comic book and video game world is a hoot. Reviews slant in the direction of each critic's tolerance for the hyperactive, hyper-stylized world fans of fighting games for instance "Street Fighter" know well. Scott Pilgrim's world, in all its hyper-reality, is very comparable to the world of the comic book film "Kick Ass," which so happened to be a favorite of numerous critics who enjoy "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World". Reviews of "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" have largely been more good, nevertheless.

'Scott Pilgrim vs. the World' reviews eat up the mash up

A fantastic mash up of popular sources makes "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" a unique experience. Young musician and professional slacker Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) is looking for true love. He finds it in delivery girl Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), but there's a problem – seven issues, to be specific. These trials are Ramona's "seven evil exes," who Scott must defeat in kung-fu style before taking the hand of the young lady. It's a simplistic plot ripped straight from a video game, and "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" pays constant tribute to such games, comics, television shows and other pop-culture artifice in a dizzying fusion. Plot is secondary to the visual style. "Enjoy the ride" appears to be the mantra of critics with good things to say about Pilgrim's progress.

Review fusion for the Pilgrim in you

The New York Daily News loves the visual flair of "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World". It's a surreal mix that Film.com rightly tabs and on-the-mark for its intended audience of 20-somethings. Betsy Sharkey of the Los Angeles Times calls the one-man-versus-the-horde throw down an "inventive, free-floating ode to nerdville" where star Michael Cera "channels his Cera-ness perfectly, which is tougher than it looks".

What matters is getting there, not where 'there' is

"Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" rocks through the changes in an eye-and ear-pleasing blowout. "It's the playing that matters," not who wins the skirmish of exes, says the Los Angeles Times reviewer. The New York Post is one of few major reviewers who do not feel that's enough, however. Their review points to a self-satisfied animism. But maybe that ride captures its target audience's personality all too well. Smith says that "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" is "all games, no joystick," yet somewhere, quarters are stacking on the machine as viewers line up to play.
