As bass guitarist for a garage-rock band, Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) has never had trouble getting a girlfriend; usually, the problem is getting rid of them. But when Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) skates into his heart, he finds she has the most troublesome baggage of all: an army of ex-boyfriends who will stop at nothing to eliminate him from her list of suitors.

Critics Consensus

Its script may not be as dazzling as its eye-popping visuals, but Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is fast, funny, and inventive.

Deborah Ross

The Spectator

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.

Edgar Wright's Scott Pilgrim vs. The World adaptation cut its Adderall with pixie-stix...to gleeful, great success.

Loud and Clear Reviews

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.

Rated: 4.5/5

Den of Geek

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.

Rated: 4/5
