Theater: Sucker Punch

We're here for the gang bang.
AS TECHNOLOGY IMPROVES, THE LINE BETWEEN VIDEO GAMES AND MOVIES IS BECOMING BLURRY. THAT IS NOT ALWAYS A BAD THING.  VIDEO GAMES MAKE UP THEIR OWN RULES, AND SO DOES SUCKER PUNCH.  IF YOU DON'T LIKE SEXY WOMEN, SLOW MOTION ACTION, AND MOVIES THAT MAKE YOU THINK, THEN WATCH THE KING'S SPEECH AND STOP BITCHING ABOUT ZACH SNYDER.

    So much to like and so much to be disappointed in with Sucker Punch. Ultimately though it is entertaining and I like your point, if you want a thinking movie go see the ( in my opinion over rated ) King's Speech.
    Zack Synder sems to be a director people love to hate. I didn't like Watchmen but I don't dislike Synder because of it!!

    @BRENT: I liked the movie more than the average joe, but I also understand the reasons for disappointment. I agree that it could have been much better, but I also feel like we have to embrace new ideas or HWood will keep pumping out Big Momma's House sequels. I also respect your balanced opinion of Snyder. Watchmen is watchable because of Rorschach only!

    Big Momma's House sequels..oh god help us!! I'd reather cut off my manhood than suffer another from that awful franchise!! You are right in Hollywood having to embrace new ideas etc. I liked Sucker Punch visually and am a real fan of the style. But it just needed some substance in between the action to lift it give it more credibility. Unfortunatley style alone won't make a movie any good overall. I really liked 300, now that was super cool!

    Yeah, Sucker Punch could have used some King Leonidas for sure!
