Scott Pilgrim vs the World

Michael Cera in the most non-George Michael Bluth of Michael Cera roles.*

Three of the most interesting youngish female actors going around at the time (film came out in 2010, six years ago): Brie Larson, Alison Pill, Anna Kendrick.

Smaller roles from Aubrey Plaza and Mae Whitman (aka Ann from Arrested Development).

An enjoyable turn from Kieran Culkin, who looks kind of like Tom Hiddleston to me.

Vegan powers!

Flash and sparkle, garage rock and everything pop, attitude and heart. Just right.

(last time; soundtrack)

* Edit for confusing syntax. This was meant to mean "the most Michael Cera role of all Michael Cera roles, apart from George Michael Bluth", and not "the Michael Cera role that is most unlike George Michael Bluth". Obviously.
