Twenty-two-year-old Scott Pilgrim is an unemployed 23-year-old bass guitarist in floundering garage band Sex Bob-omb, who is dating a cute 17-year-old high school girl, Knives Chau. And in order to win her heart, Scott has to defeat her seven evil ex-boyfriends.
The cast of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World represents the best young talent coming up in Hollywood today.

Film Inquiry
Scott Pilgrim VS The World is a great action comedy with an interesting look at romance and teen culture; the humorous tone of the film masks a much darker look at romance.
While there have been numerous attempts by Hollywood to cash in on the popularity of video games, none of those films has felt true to the artistic and creative spirit of those games until now. This one gets it right.
You need to take a step back to see the emotional heart of the story, an allegory of a generation struggling to exchange the solipsistic Xbox triumphs for awkward real-world love and empathy.
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is refreshing, unique, wildly entertaining and consistently funny. I haven't had this much fun while watching a movie in a long, long time.
It could have been a noisy, flashy mess, but luckily it's got heart, which makes it feel fun and unique, and more like a lo-fi, endearing mess instead.
Like the special effects, the characters are sketched out in tiresome cinematic shorthand, as if to reassure the viewer that this joyride really isn't worth thinking too hard about.
