Pilgrim plays bass guitar for a garage band called Sex Bob-omb (the other members include frontman Mark Webber, drummer Alison Pill and super sub Johnny Simmons). Mild-mannered jerky slacker wannabe Lothario Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) is an unemployed 22-year-old living in wintry Toronto in a tiny one-room basement apartment with a playful acerbic tongued gay roommate Wallace Wells ( Kieran Culkin), who along with his sister ( Anna Kendrick ) offer wry comments on Pilgrim’s adventures throughout.

Though I can see the audience the film targets totally going for it big time (to each his own!). As much as I wanted to like it because of its high energy, its super cool visuals, the right way its CGIs were used and its attempt to be fresh, I found it not possible to tune in to its loud superficial music without my ears ringing, its bizarre surreal fantasy romance story without becoming nauseous at its banality, its selfish droll dweeb antihero without being reminded of him as a pompous asshole (liking the shaky voiced Michael Cera is an acquired taste that I haven’t yet acquired), its ambitious but unfulfilling pop culture in-joke comedy without grimacing instead of laughing (I think you must be someone who frequently says “whatever” to fully dig the annoying jokes), and just about everything else about it. The 36-year-old British filmmaker Edgar Wright (“Hot Fuzz”/”Shaun of the Dead”) directs this hyper youth rock band on the rise coming-of-age film based on the graphic novels by Bryan Lee O’Malley and cowrites it with Michael Bacall.
