Scott Pilgrim vs the World (2010)

This is an imperfect-but-creditable movie. 23-year-old Canadian Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) is constantly being teased for dating an Asian high school girl (Ellen Wong) who has never been kissed. At a party he sees an American girl named Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) with dyed hair. He instantly falls for her and orders a package through Amazon hoping she will deliver it to his apartment. After they start dating he realizes that in order to stay with her, he will have to fight off her evil former boyfriends.

I didn’t like the video-game-in-real-life format and the comic book style words appearing across the screen. The film never really explains why the girl has dated so many people with superpowers. The story is based on the graphic novel series written by Bryan Lee O'Malley. The DVD will be released on November 9, 2010.
