My Film: 'Sucker Punch' 7-4-11


If you have seen them and thought Zack Snyder’s previous films, among them 300 and Watchmen, were over the top, in your face cliché– they have nothing on Sucker Punch. It consisted of a group of girls wearing very little clothing and shooting at zombies and dragons.

His first movie to be based on original material rather than a comic book which was the case with Watchmen and 300 and presumably named after the sensation of stupidity in this ridiculous, militantly stupid orgy of guns, knives and explosions that recalls reminds me of Shutter island, kill bill and Tomb raider, if I am honest.  However, I should of hated this obviously 'lad' film but I did like it. I liked the darkness of it of it to be honest, I did however, find it far to dark to have it certified as a 12A.

It is worth a watch but I don't think I will buy it on dvd.

My Star Rating:
6/10 *

  1. I wondered about this one. My wife wants to see it, but I disliked 300 and Watchmen. We both did actually, but she has this psychic connection with other blondes (even if they're fake) and needs to see any movie starring a blonde with a weapon.
