That's right, yours truly got to watch an advanced screening at her local theater and will now share a very quick, and spoiler-free review.
First off, I have to say this:
OMG, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is one of the funniest and wildest rides I've been on! It's utterly hilarious at every moment, and each performance was so hysterical, I was almost in tears laughing.
I would definitely say the main highlight of the film would be Scott's battles against the seven evil exes; each one is so fabulously over-the-top, and yet they just work. And in the spirit of keeping things as spoiler free as possible, I'm just going say that they are utterly amazing and so fresh and mind-blowing.
The acting is also great and funny too. I actually loved Kieran Culkin's part as Scott's gay roomie; his lines were definitely some of the funniest in this. And Chris Evans (our Captain America) was a surprising highlight for me; his character, as much of a jerk as he was, he was also so funny and even intimidating. And strangely enough, I think Evans' intimidating air can actually benefit his eventual performance as Cap, but I'm probably getting ahead of myself.
However, if I were to make a complaint about this, I'd have to say that it would be Michael Cera's performance. Nothing against him as an actor (I love him in fact), but he sometimes came across as too soft-spoken. However, he did nail the comedy down pat, and he handled the fight scenes with major gusto. I also will admit that I had a problem with the rapid changes in scene; they were sometimes so sudden and fast, I almost got whiplash.
All in all, I'd rate Scott Pilgrim vs. the World an 8.5/10.
