colorful pop Delirio
Placing a film in its proper context, understanding the ways to fund and accepting outside sources and references , one can fully enjoy the product so atypical as "Scott Pilgrim."
Based on a popular comic by Canadian Bryan Lee O'Malley, the film presents itself as a successful extension of the comic almost all its concepts, and from this premise, it works with absolute fluency and with a continued and little speculative detail.
Scott is a teenager living in Toronto, who dreams of conquering the mysterious Ramona Flowers. But to win the heart of this girl, you must defeat her seven "evil exes." This simple beginning narrative will be used by the director Edgar Wright, who strikes us as a romantic comedy with zombies (Shaun of the Dead) and with that subtle parody (Hot Fuzz) - to compose a colorful mosaic structured and where the form will pop superimposed on the background so that only the Finally acquire important enough to highlight in itself. In this sense one could say no problems that the film is pure comic with pieces of game. That is, it respects both the format and handle it with such ease and daring that comics-movie-game are a formal trick of undeniable visual interest and a few cracks.
Apart from this, Wright uses elements of comedy - sometimes surreal, but always bold, to support history and turn the narrative on a fun show and with massive doses of voluptuous essence burtoniana. " And is that if Tim Burton's influence can be seen in some details, such as the recent films "Kick Ass" or the work of Tarantino's "Kill Bill" are clear examples of a film where everything works in favor of spectacle, and the end result will look more favored the more they used alternative media to film enforcement mechanism. All this leads to a teen pop culture environment, where the staging is so important, like music (mostly independent) or literary and cinematic references. A compendium that inevitably forces us to remember Andy Warhol's work in all its aspects and the stela that has left over the years.
In this environment, the performances are in strict conformity format, and the same player Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) that bears some resemblance to that distant aesthetic Jack Putter (Martin Short) for the curious "Innerspace", an anti-hero is all old-fashioned but post modernist touches.
Yet risk and courage, the film works, and will appeal especially to those who feel more identified with the concepts provided (not necessarily geeks) and those who enjoy exalted fights to the "street fighter" junior and sometimes absurd comedy in a purely virtual environment and picturesque.
