Been checking out movies I just never got around to seeing for whatever reason and just caught Scott Pilgrim vs The World.
Very fun movie, I appreciated that it had its own very distinct sense of style, and aimed for pure entertainment over all else.
My only issue was that the titular lead came off as a bit of a creep early on, to the point where even in a film where people punch holes in the moon, I had trouble suspending my disbelief as far as why Ramona would ever go out with him in the first place. I get that he started off kinda pathetic so that he could grow and have a character arc, but there was just no chemistry at all and it made no sense why she'd give him the time of day.
Still, that's a relatively minor gripe in a film like this.
