a5c7b9f00b Scott Pilgrim plays in a band which aspires to success. He dates Knives Chau, a high-school girl five years younger, and he hasn't recovered from being dumped by his former girlfriend, now a success with her own band. When Scott falls for Ramona Flowers, he has trouble breaking up with Knives and tries to romance Ramona. As if juggling two women wasn't enough, Ramona comes with baggage: seven ex-lovers, with each of whom Scott must do battle to the death in order to win Ramona.
Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) is an unemployed 23-year-old hipster in a going-nowhere garage rock band who is dating an underage 17-year-old high school girl, Knives Chau (Ellen Wong). He is completely self-absorbed and oblivious anyone else's needs but his own until one day Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) becomes the object of his obsessions for basically no reason. Ramona is a shrill, unlikable, damaged hipster who is only likable to Scott. No one knows what her past is, but Scott will find out very soonhe tries to make Ramona his new girlfriend, cheating on his devastated underage girlfriend. Before Scott can begin dating Ramona, he must prove himself by defeating the league of her seven exes who control her love life. They will do anything to get rid of and destroy any new boyfriend Ramona may consider. If Scott wants to find true love with Ramona, he must defeat all seven, faster than you can say "career ender"
For those who have been trying to figure out which media influenced the scenarists of 'Scott Pilgrim', how about MTV, old 80s video games, comic books and Quentin Tarrantino? There's one other that may only occur to the older population watching this film: Batman, the 60s TV show. Remember all the zany titles which would appear whenever something dramatic happened (titles such"Sock!", "Pow!", "Bong!")? A similar technique is employed here with Scott Pilgrim but the titles are often inserted for a more farcical comic book effect (for example, when a phone rings, the title "ring" zips across the screen). One or two word titles are also utilized to describe each character (so if the narrator mentions someone is 'clueless', it's also mentioned againa title description). 'Pilgrim' wins points for its original visual style, featuring nifty camera work and spectacular special effects which often makes one feelif one is inside of a crazy video game.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, Pilgrim's story isblandthe title character. Michael Cera (playing another geeky role) is awfula 22 year old garage band musician who first dates a perky high school student ("Knives Chau") but then dumps her for the more mysterious Ramona Flowers (winningly played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead). Cera's Pilgrim can do nothing more than act like a love sick puppy dog opposite the much more aggressive Flowers from beginning to end.<br/><br/>In real life, the enigmatic Flowers would never go for the wimpy Pilgrim who always seems to be kow-towing to her during their many platonic interactions. Somehow, Flowers decides to give Pilgrim a second chance after he defeats her 7th ex-boyfriend Gideon (Pilgrim's ex-bands' new sponsor) in a long-winded fight scene (Flowers is not really 'attracted' to boyfriend #7; actually, he's planted a micro-chip in her brain causing her to fall for him!).<br/><br/>That's basically the crux of the Pilgrim plot—our 'hero' must go toe to toe with all of Flowers' evil exes before he can win back the object of his infatuation. The seven confrontations (which include a woman, one of Ramona's bi-flings) are nothing more than a device to stage a series of silly fight scenes reminiscent of Tarrantino's stylized sword fights in "Kill Bill". None of it makes any sense, especially when perky and cute Knives attacks Ramona out of jealousy over her relationship with Pilgrim. Should I also mention that Pilgrim is stabbed to death, goes to limbo but discovers he has an "extra life" that enables him to return to earth so he can do battle with Gideon all over again.<br/><br/>None of the supporting players exhibit any charm. Pilgrim's gay roommate, for example, puts Pilgrim down when he advises Knives not to get involved with him during their first meet up. And then there's Pilgrim's drummer and ex-girlfriend Kim Pine; why exactly does she have a dour expression on her face throughout the film? There's also little humor in the film—one attempt (if you can call it that) occurs with Ramona's third ex, Todd; he's stymied when he's stripped of his 'vegan psychic' powers by the 'vegan police' who have discovered that he's been putting half and half (non-vegan milk substitute) in his coffee.<br/><br/>In the end, one can only conclude that 'Pilgrim' is a pointless endeavor. Should we regard 'Pilgrim'an honorable character after he engages in these violent confrontations with a group of one-dimensional, comic book villains? Even worse is how emasculated Pilgrim comes offhe is led around on a leash by a much more hip Ramona. This is a film strictly for teenagers. Its failure to appeal to an older, more sophisticated crowd spelled doom at the box office in the American market.
Wow! This movie was amazing! With the decades current trend of turning comic books into feature films, there are many different interpretations and ways to present an already visualized story. Even though I haven't read most of the comics, I must say this adaptation has been one of my favorites! I loved the choice to make very stylized visuals. I love how fight and song sequences would merge int It was fun to go from understand the normalcy of the characters and then feelif you are in the middle of reading a comic or playing Street Fighter. It was both a comic and artful way of moving the plot or giving characterization. The script was great too, with many fun quips and dialogs,wellgreat timing and delivery by the actors.<br/><br/>Although I loved the mixture of realistic and animated qualities, it also made the movie a little confusing at times. I kept waiting for there to be an explanation of why Scott suddenly had powers near the beginning,wellto how the exes got them. As the movie progressed, however, it got easier to simply except that it was part of the surreal and fun aspect of having both worlds. I also had a hard time sympathizing with Scott's character (the jerk!) but the end also helps make up for that.<br/><br/>This movie reminded me somewhat of Kick-Ass, but it was a very different approach. There was much less violence, the characters in Scott merely evaporating into piles of money. In Kick-Ass, the focus seemed to be more on the reality of where a super hero comes from and the problems that come from living in "real life". Scott Pilgrim did almost the reverse, moving from normality into parts of imaginary worlds, but with an acceptance that it's simply a fun and colorful story.<br/><br/>Very good! Go see it!
Put simply: Scott Pilgrim is a blast! The total package is a wildly comic journey into the head of a true original. If you are under 25 you will find all of it really, really funny.
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is based on the graphic novel series Scott Pilgrim by Canadian cartoonist Bryan Lee O'Malley. Six Scott Pilgrim books were first published between 2004 and 2010. The movie's title comes from the second volume of the series but is an adaptation of all six volumes. It's called "I Heard Ramona Sing" by Frank Black. "Invaders Must Die" by The Prodigy<br/><br/>The short trailer features the song "Ramona" by Beck.<br/><br/>The full trailer has music by the fictional Sex Bob-Omb and "It's Getting Boring by the Sea" by Blood Red Shoes.<br/><br/>"Black Sheep" by Metric<br/><br/>Beck is playing the role of Sex Bob-omb.<br/><br/>Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning are writing the music for rival bands Crash and the Boys. There is an article about the music here. The time span can be surmised by the number of changes in Ramona's hair colour, which she states that she changes "every week and a half". Scott meets Ramona during the last few days of her "pink hair" cycle, before she goes blue for most of the film. She then change's her hair green at the end. The "blue hair" cycle was the only full cycle shown, so the time span of the film is between one and a half to two weeks (three at the most). Another hint to the time span is how Ramona kept mentioning how her relationships also only lasted a week and a half. As such, it can be surmised that a week and a half passed when she breaks up with Scott and returns to Gideon (hence the green hair in her next scene) Based on the landmarks present within the film (Honest Ed's, Lee's Palace, Casa Loma), the film primarily takes place in and around the Annex neighborhood in the central part of the city. Honest Ed's is a popular department store in the area and is visible in the background of many shots. There really is a Pizza Pizza restaurant across the street (though the interiors are different than seen in the film). Lee's Palace is a popular live music venue and it is located about two and half blocks east of Honest Ed's. Casa Loma is an actual castle located about three kilometers (about two miles) north of both landmarks and can quickly accessed by either subway or bus. There really is a steep staircase that must be climbed to reach Casa Loma from the south. The Annex is also home to The Bloor Cinema, a repertory cinema where Edgar Wright hosted screenings during production of the film. The school used in the film is St. Michael's College School, located at Bathurst St. and St. Clair Avenue West. Sometimes, but rarely in the amount seen in the film. However, it's not uncommon for that level of snow to be present during the winter.
