The chaos may seem out of control, but Wright seems to suggest that, much like the real world, chaos can be controlled by the power of our own emotions.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Oct 25, 2024

Scott Pilgrim Vs The World is a triumph of compression, a skill most adaptations now lack. It succeeds in tidy, economical storytelling that doesn't skimp on pace, emotional payoffs or big laughs.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 7, 2024

Wright has constructed an extraordinary piece of entertainment. It’s unlike anything you’ve seen before.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 9, 2023

Three movies are stacked into one… for those who can follow along and appreciate its quick draw, it is a generous offering. [Full review in Spanish]

11 years later, it remains the best video game movie ever and a top-shelf comic book movie, and one of Edgar Wright’s best movies.

| Jun 15, 2022

This is a flashy filmic landscape of expertly choreographed fight sequences and bubble-written onomatopoeia splattered across frames.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jun 25, 2021

So much of the film is completely nonsensical, bringing new meaning to the notion of a live action video game movie.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Nov 30, 2020

Easily Summer 2010's wildest, most inventive and original comedy.

| Original Score: 3.5/4.0 | Sep 22, 2020

Edgar Wright's love letter to geekdom is still wildly inventive and imaginative ten years on.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Sep 3, 2020

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World stands out as a film adaptation that loves its source material's medium as much as it loves its stories.

| Aug 19, 2020

Light as a feather, driven by a near-perfect soundtrack, this movie is still as fresh and innovative today as it was a decade ago.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 10, 2020

So many movies feel derivative or fall into easily recognizable categories. [Scott Pilgrim] is a movie that stands out from the crowd and continues to do so ten years later.

| Jun 1, 2020

The 112 minutes of 'Scott Pilgrim vs. the World' are a constant appeal to the public with impossible scenes in which reality and fantasy are mixed with an astonishing naturality. [Full Review in Spanish]

It's just joyfully creative in the way Wright weaves the lexicons of video games and rock into the narrative but that shouldn't distract you from the fact this is also skilled genre filmmaking of a high order.

Perhaps if we were all able to view life more like those games that challenged us as children, we wouldn't be so afraid to leap after what we want.

| Jan 14, 2019

Wright delights in setting up the tale with a mix of comedy, great production design and Fight Club style visual gags. On the downside, Cera's standard goofy geek stereotype has become slightly wearing.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 6, 2018

A defiantly youthful, but nevertheless mature film that is not quite like anything you will have seen before.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Nov 5, 2018

Does it seem pandering? Are they sick of the bleating, narrow-shouldered Michael Cera type-casting? Do they dislike having their sense of leading epic lives pointed out for laughs, especially in the grandiose form that is cinema?

| Oct 31, 2018

A giddy, hyperkinetic, over-stylized barrage of video game, comic book and pop culture references in all the best ways.

| Original Score: 9/10 | Oct 31, 2018

Energy and invention and audacity count for little unless you can sense something at its core - unless a film gives you something to feel - but there is zilch here. It's hollow.
