Scott Pilgrim Vs The World (Dir. Edgar Wright)

Wow.

I thought that the comic book style of the film would really annoy me but I was in awe. It's brilliant and something that I have never seen before. The story was funny and fantastically random with quirky characters. Michael Cera was very funny and so was his room-mate "Wallace".

I can not describe the brilliance of the shots and sequences. They were paced just like a comic book with dramatic extreme close ups, quick jumps from shot to shot, sharp crops and cuts. It wasn't just amazing in the way it was shot but also the way it was edited.
I think the majority of it's success is down to the editing. The graphics were so good and really made the film what it is. It's just completely unique and defintately worth seeing. Can't wait to see it again and read the graphic novels!
