Getting To Play In Edgar Wright’s Sandbox

There are few things more satisfying than being able to lay back and let a director take you into his or her world, especially as there are few things are harder in film making than to do exactly that. We’re a very literate culture, very aware of all the narrative tricks of the trade, jaded by “behind the scenes” features, so on and so forth. For whatever reason, Edgar Wright has just the right amount of smarts and talents and ass-kicking awesomeness to keep me enthralled every single time out, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is no different.
