Synopsis
As bass guitarist for a garage-rock band, Scott Pilgrim has never had trouble getting a girlfriend; usually, the problem is getting rid of them. But when Ramona Flowers 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 mostly embraced Edgar Wright's comic-book adaptation for its playful video-game visuals, brisk pacing, humor and energetic cast. Most saw the flashy editing as serving the story rather than hiding its absence. The chief complaint was that the characters and plot feel slight compared with the style around them.
