Sorry, while the movie premise seemed promising.
I can't bring myself to see anything with the horrible acting of Michael Cera.
While it is completely true that some actors are only good at certain acting roles, it's unfair to discount this movie just because of one of them. This director really managed to get the full mileage out of Cera's awkward teen trademark. And I don't happen to count Cera among the single acting types since I saw Youth in Revolt.
Example : Keanu Reeves. He is most definitely a single role type. I will watch him be the creepy emotionless type any day of the week, because that's his thing; Neo, Klaatu and whathaveyou. Fuck, I'll have a beer with the guy - if stories are to be believed, he's a far cry from the primadonna actor types, and actually a fairly humble guy. He openly admits that he's not that good at acting, or that smart for that matter, and spends most of his money on his bedridden sister, who has leukemia. He's dyslexic, his girlfriend had a stillborn kid and committed suicide and his father left him when he was three. He's been shit on a lot more than most people and still keeps going.
But there is still no way in fuck I am going to see the live-action Cowboy Bebop movie, in which he is cast as Spike.
tl;dr. Cera isn't such a bad actor, and the antics more than make up for it. Watch it faggot.
Also, daniel_gudman, I'm in complete agreement with you. Christoper Nolan shits gold as far as I'm concerned. But in a face off between Inception and Scott Pilgrim, I'm going to have to pick the one that didn't make me want to kill myself to make sure I wasn't in a dream afterwards.
