Sucker Punch

[McLovin']

It wasn't great but ALL the fantasy scenes were awesome and so was the soundtrack. Everything else wasn't anything special.

6/10 For excellent entertainment in the fantasy world every so often.

Alright I just saw it.
First off, I was wrong to compare it to Pan's Labyrinth, because I realize they are different concepts. Second, the soundtrack was horrible; probably the worst covers ever. I really would have enjoyed a purely instrumental soundtrack.
That being said, I enjoyed this movie. I ended up feeling sympathy for the characters, and sitting on the edge of my seat to make sure they accomplished what they wanted. Talking with my boyfriend who saw it with me, he called it sexist, but I disagree. Just because a movie shows girls in skimpy outfits fighting doesn't make it sexist. If you used that mentality you could say 300 was sexist too. In 300's case, most guys dream of looking smoking hot and fighting like a champion, and so do us girls. I would love to wear those outfits and slash my katana all over yo face. I'm not saying that's how girls should look, but we sure do dream of it. Also, DREAM it is, it's a fantasy world, not the real world. Also, being a girl I think I felt more for the characters. Any girl who knows what it's like to have the horrible fear of a man who dominates you (and not in the sexy way) knows how these girls feel, and why they're trying to do what they're trying to do. Much of the story was relate-able to me in a very enjoyable way.
It's fluff; but good fluff. Don't take it too seriously, and don't compare it to Pan's Labyrinth or Jacob's Ladder. Just watch it, enjoy the fanservice, and shut up.
Oh and yeah, Vanessa Hudgins sucks at acting. she's still hot though.

It would take a pretty strange person to compare Sucker Punch to Pan's Labyrinth (or to Jacob's Ladder for that matter).

I really enjoyed this movie, it was original which i found quite refreshing. This movie seemed like a mix of the matrix + kill bill + the powerpuff girls and i gotta say, it was pretty awesome.

[Proxy]

it was original but you compared it to 2 movies and a tv show =\
..one more time?

This movie seemed like a mix of the matrix + kill bill + the powerpuff girls

God, no.
I don't want to have sex with the powerpuff girls.

and i gotta say, it was pretty awesome.

Agreed

[Shiny]

I can see how it relates to Powerpuff Girls actually which is exactly why I'm not seeing it. Okay, there are more reasons, but no.

[TrollHunter]

God, no.
I don't want to have sex with the powerpuff girls.

Also I could personally care less about the contradiction I made in my earlier post. I was half-asleep when I posted that

Just barely past the three months rule.

I watched this movie a week ago and it was mothersmurfing fantastic.

I liked how the movie mashed together wildly different genres, and of course, hot girls fighting doesn't hurt either.

The visuals, and trailers, and concepts for movies of this variety always looks so smurfing good. Then I watch the movie and it's just bland. Some of them aren't even bad, they just become completely forgettable.

Is this one truly any different/better? I know it's tough to quantify, but does it really grab you/pull you in? Most of the movies like this nowadays have CGI special effects that are so over the top it really just drags the movie down into a place where you know you're watching a movie, and without the visuals, you realize it's a crap movie.

[Mirage]

I would say it is very different from any other movie I have seen in a very long time. Also, don't watch the trailers, they give away too much.

If you're so concerned about movies being worth your money, why don't you just download them? Even if a movie isn't stellar, I would say it is rare that a movie is so bad that it isn't even worth the time I spent watching it.

Also, the special effects are very over the top, but I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

[sharkythesharkdogg]

I'm not worried about the movie being worth the money, I'm worried about it being worth my time.

I'll give it a whirl sometime.

How busy could you possibly be?

[sharkythesharkdogg]

I'm always too busy for big piles of horsetrout that Hollywood tries to call a movie.

Not saying this one is, but a lot of them are.
