100 movies of 2010

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (25/08/10)
There’s been a lot of Scott Pilgrim on here lately. That’s down to me trying to read the book before the film is released and then watching the film and having to write on here to add it to my 100 movies list.

Any who… It was awesome! Or should I say epic? Brilliant movie. I think having read the comic books didn’t necessarily make me enjoy it more, just enjoy it in a slightly different way to how the everyday Joe public would enjoy the movie.

It did follow the comics very closely. Well as closely as I can remember considering I’ve only read the books once through. It was all very close up until the final volume. But it was nice how the story of the film diverged from the comic and then towards the end, headed back to where the comics went.

The music was awesome. I’ve been listening to the soundtracks today on Spotify and will be buying them very soon. The score OST’s a very different one to what I’m used to listening to, but there are some really beautiful score pieces, like Love me some walking.

Great cast. Amazing action sequences – the fight scenes were just awesome! Just go see Scott Pilgrim today!
Rating: 5/5
