I already saw this movie but since I just bought an awesome brand new TV, I thought I might as well check it out again. In fact, by now, I have seen this movie a couple of times and I still enjoy it so much. Hell, the first time around, I was already sold with the 8 bit Universal logo and it still cracks me up each time I see it again. And I think it was probably the main issue why this movie didn’t really find an audience when it was released. Basically, it was made for a very specific audience and other people probably wouldn't care for it. I mean, if you have never been into gaming specifically the older games from the 80's and the 90's or if you never cared for those, all the video games references will be lost on you and they might even bother you. As far as I was concerned, I thought it was just awesome though. Furthermore, I had never seen a movie with such an ADHD syndrome and it is also something that can wear you down pretty quickly but, once again, for me, it made the whole thing even more appealing. Of course, the characters were really cartoony but most of them were pretty funny. Personally, I had so much fun watching this and I actually enjoyed it more than 'Kick-Ass' which was released the same year (By the way, while ‘Scott Pilgrim’ is a like a good vintage getting better every year, I’m afraid 'Kick-Ass' which did look awesome at first didn’t grow old so well though) . Anyway, to conclude, even though it might be an acquired taste, I really loved it and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are interested in a ADHD gaming obsessed movie.
