Such an odd pairing. Exit is amorphous and fascinating and is definitely the better film, but that doesn't mean I like it more than Scott Pilgrim because Scott Pilgrim was the most fun I had in theaters in 2010. It was also the most fun I had the 20 other times I watched it.

I like Banksy, but documentaries are not his medium. He does vicious, witty work that can be takn in at a glance. He used he kick against authority. Now his targets are ignorance and the need to belong. Easy targets. Unoriginal targets. No matter how clever the film is structurally, I despise it. Scott Pilgrim is far, far better.
