Snyder was trying pretty hard to take his glossy stylized action and drape it over an intriguing and sophisticated story, it ended up like a very determined man attempting to mince an onion with a candelabra. It still has great eye candy, especially of the female variety, but don't expect a movie that will astonish you, or even vaguely satisfy any deeper cerebral function.

A giant pisspotpourri of cut scenes from computer games, specifically toned down in graphical violence as to sell rape and torture to the kids. It's no one's fantasy in particular, just a soulless commercial hack job, designed to tickle every fan-boys funny bone. If you get a wet feeling, when you watch the random misandrist bullshit of a story that guides the striptease along, well, that's just Snyder pissing in your face. This isn't film. This is the cancer that is killing film.

This with literally zero exaggeration may be the worst movie I have ever seen. Completely retarded, has no substance or point, is boring and its just the biggest/shittiest mess in the history of anything. I have the feeling Snyder was sitting there stroking himself thinking he was making a nerds ultimate fantasy come true, I hope someone tells him he's a complete fucking moron. Not even worth it for hot chicks or thirty seconds of Jon Hamm.

A huge butt of a movie. Just not the nice butt. The kind of butt on the person you absolutely hate, the flabby one, the one as big as a country and says: "fuck you, asshole". This butt-thing doesn't make any sense, but so doesn't this movie. Very embarrassing (!!), boring and cheesy; a cinematic lobotomy.

Imagine if you dare, being forced to watch a Joe Eszterhas penned madhouse/burlesque sleazefest, and every time your head is about to implode, you get to play some funky Japanese action game for 5 minutes, before continuing. Such a viewing experience was Sucker Punch: Some great visual bonanza, a story set to please the libido and "intellect" of 13 year old boys and an uninspired use of pop-music, including a bunch of god-awful covers of rock classics.

Starts out like a bad movie based on a comic book, and then becomes like a bad movie based on a computer game, filmed like an uninspired and endless music video. Then it makes it clear it is going to keep on doing this in the same way over and over again. Then I stopped watching.

Snyder can make pictures look good, no doubt about it. Reminding us that talent and taste don't necessarily go hand in hand, his choices are uniformly poor, obvious and vulgar. The beginning gives a glimpse of what he's capable of in terms of music video style storytelling. Style over content is just fine but the over-the-top computer game aesthetics are almost as mind-draining as the futile attempts to inject drama. Caring is not an option. That wildly inappropriate final message was baffling.

Sucker Punch is a daft film that pretentiously portrays itself as being some progressive feminist piece when it just comes across as puerile. The film is better defined as some teen male fantasy than meaningful commentary on feminine suffering. It boasts a lot of flashy action scenes but it's difficult to have any investment in them when their thematic purpose is one-note nor do these scenes even matter to the plot. The action scenes themselves are largely forgettable outside the setpieces.

When Zack Snyder set out to make Sucker Punch, he wanted to ensure that he wrote it tastefully and intelligently so that it's not "like a bullshit thing like Ultraviolet or something like that". Yeah, well, he's definitely full of shit. I don't even have to watch Ultraviolet to know this. There's no use talking about a movie like Sucker Punch, so if you want to know why it's awful, and trust me it is, you'll just have to watch it yourself. Derivative, empty garbage.

(Ext. Cut): This is a flawed film, no doubt, but it is also an original and interesting one. It's an exploitation film which questions the nature and provides commentary on the exploitation. Also, it is, in fact, far less sexist (and far more creative) than the average, testosterone fueled action film out there. It would be very easy to hate this movie, but liking it is far more rewarding.

Kick ass hot chicks, guns, samurai swords, steampunk, mechs, and sick videogame visuals = baddazz! I'm pretty sure this is what the white-board looked like at the planning session for this movie. This movie was completely vapid. If Maxim magazine was turned into a movie this would be that movie. The story was ridiculous. Sucker punch would have worked nicely as a three minute music video for one of the awesome songs on it's soundtrack, but as a feature length movie it falls flat.

Beautiful girls fighting in post-apocalyptic fight scenes? Count me in! Oh, the plot is essentially finished before the film begins, the fighting takes place in dream sequences that are completely ineffectual and unimportant, and 60% of the film concerns the beautiful girls being raped, abused, and murdered? Count me out.

Ultimately, Sucker Punch works very well as a video game you can masturbate to, but then feel bad about yourself afterward. Its a tough review because Snyder gives a film that has no equal in its originality, but much of it is completely stupid. If he stops writing his films...we will have something worth watching again and again. Scott Glen cracked me up with his one-liner words of wisdom stolen anywhere from Roosevelt to a butchered Top Gun quote.

I have been thinking about this film a lot since I watched it, & have changed my score several times. It has me quite torn. I can't deny that it looks great, & several scenes got me geekishly excited! But the concept is a total mess, & after the epic opening sequence everything else makes little or no sense. The script is a shocker also, as Snyder switches between pure misogyny & some sort of neo-feminism! But I have a soft spot for Snyder's style, lets just hope he never writes anything again!

Style over substance would be the understatement to end all understatements. "Sucker Punch" is pure geek fantasy. Female empowerment? Or an exercise in misogyny? Who cares? Snyder crafts incredible and (way, way, way) over the top action sequences using fastforward, extreme slow-motion and acrobatic camera movements. It's equal parts anime and computer game, art and porn. It's so far removed from your typical ho-hum Michael Bay production that it'll have most people shitting bricks. I loved it.

Sucker Punch is more or less a collection of short action vignettes with the writing quality of a video game cutscene. A horribly boring and cliche burlesque melodrama attempts to bridge the cg gratuity with as little effort as can be managed. As someone who loved Watchmen, 300 and Dawn of the Dead, this is a huge letdown. Zack Snyder has gone from being one of the most interesting action directors to another Micheal Bay sized hack, only more pretentious.

Snyder aesthetics tuned to anime, conscious b-script, pop song remixes and boundless eclectism isn't necessarily a recipe for disaster; these are mostly Tarantino ingredients. These are no excuse for this mockery of a film. For a second there it feels like Snyder has an idea sending powerpuff girls to random rides of popular wars, just for a second. And why are every! actor red-eyed, what was going on in the set?

The sucker punch that Snyder delivers is directed toward the vast, (mostly) unsuspecting audience he had hoped to attract with his CG-laden eye candy of scantily-clad women who are thrown into every genre that males under 30 yearn for. He is not-so-subtly equating the dominance of the male gaze in pop culture to the dominance of men over women in society. It's a laudable and ballsy message, but it falls victim to an awful plot that lacks any tension, as well as awful dialogue that lacks any wit.

I believe this movie to be a misjudged classic (and there are reasons for it). Inception is a journey in the mind; this is a journey in the soul. With style completely shadowing the substance of this gem (and, again, I suppose the director had a purpose in doing this), this movie requires more than just one-watch to reach its heart. Take some time out, unclutter your mind about the opinions others have about this movie, and judge again. I am sure, you'll be prepared this time.

Pros: the mayor, satisfying music and costumes, some pretty amazing visuals | Cons: everything else || Zack probably just wanted an excuse, be it good or bad, to put all these shots on screen. Too bad his ideas are not at all related and this 'excuse' therefore seems to have the attention span of a 5 year old. Booom dragons...boom zombies..and Nazis.... Seeing how this was going nowhere,I enjoyed the already mentioned visuals, as anyone should-that's what this is about.

That the limp, suspenseless, PS3-cutscene styled action scenes are not only the highlight but a welcome recess from the general suckitude of this film says a lot about the depths to which this movie frequently and willingly plummets. Its aggressively annoying tendencey towards terrible dialogue and revolting covers of classic songs battles with its soulcrushingly boring storyline and the actors-in-name-only for the honors of being the worst thing about this slo-mo trainwreck.

Zack Snyder remains a fine visual stylist, able to craft dazzling imagery. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for his screenwriting. The characters all felt flat and devoid of any personality and I couldn't make myself care. I liked Jena Malone's performance, although Emily Browning was bland and monotone. Not sure if that's her fault or Snyder's.

Points for the art direction, even that was bleak for source sake. Fuck the exposition to hell. The dance sequences turned to pulp boredom immediately. In fact, this makes House of Flying Daggers look like the film equivalent of the Sistine Chapel. The character dev. ranks with some of the lowest ever. I figure if you tried to ask Baby Doll what her perspective on knee high stockings was, she'd sort of gawk at you for a while, then a glob of drool would drip out of her indefinitely open mouth.

Candy coated action scenes covering a hollow shell of a story. I found it nearly impossible to give a damn about any of the main characters, because I knew next to nothing about them, and none of them felt like real people. Oddly, the villain ends up being the most well-developed, believable character (and the best acted).

It's way up there and at this point (end of March 2011) stands as my favorite of the year, I can say that with some authority. Overwhelmingly stylish, the dazzling visuals (even though that's a buzz phrase nowadays) and the subversive main character and her dark story keep the movie moving along at a good clip. Had some really excellent scenes and interesting conventions, is supported by an excellent score and is an absolute feast for your Id. Oh -- and one more thing -- SUCKAH PUNCH!!!!!!!!!!

Every film that has Giant Samurais, Steam-Powered Nazis, Dragons and Robots in it deserves recognition. Sucker Punch has it all + good looking baby dolls! That combined with Zack Snyders visual style makes Sucker Punch a fantastic movie as entertainment. That the story isn't written by Aaron Sorkin, anyone could have guessed, but who cares as long as you get all of the above. Keep 'em coming Zack!

For how stylized the movie is, it's incredibly boring and filled with bland action scenes. The movie turns into a joke midway through that sadly doesn't end and keeps going. Characters don't act human they act like robots, or maybe that's just their horrible acting? Why did this get you the Superman job Zack? It shouldn't have even got you a job at McDonalds.

As much as I want to say Sucker Punch is irredeemable trash I have to admit Snyder's cinematic visual skill. However I can't contain my contempt for everything else in this film. It's basically a textbook example as to why people can't stand watching most anime. Snyder tries to create a girl power movie like Russ Meyer, wherein he has a feminist film with scantly clad babes. Sucker Punch, however, isn't about female empowerment but exploitation and constant submissiveness to men.

For a film that lacks most ingredients normally deemed important in narrative films, such as characters and a story, this isn't all bad. Though fundamentally lacking any real suspense as nothing is really at stake during the action scenes, they are entertaining in a ridiculously vulgar way. But ultimately the inane dialogue scenes in between will have you yawning and rolling your eyes. All in all it leaves you wondering which direction Snyder's career is going. Oh and more thing: Meditative.

Sucker Punch has an awesome look and feel to it. The soundtrack is filled with great cover songs that set exactly the right mood whenever needed. The opening scene is one of the best I have seen to get me excited right off the beat, and it is followed by many more; all visually stunning and dreamy. It's definitely a one-to-watch in my book. And yes, as the tagline says: "You Will Be Unprepared".

I'm not going to lie, I couldn't bring myself to finish this. And I never bail, much less review movies I've bailed on, but this... Snyder has a gifted eye and seems to have written a script tailor-made to allow him to enter whatever action fantasy lands he wants. Unfortunately, none of it carries any weight. It wants you to guess what's really going on -- if it's all a dying dream, if it's a coping-mechanism hallucination, if it's real -- but without anything firm to hang onto, nothing matters.

It's entertaining, and it has an interesting enough story to make the action sequences mean something. The visuals are incredible, the plot will leave you thinking, and the action scenes are unique and fun to watch. Had the girls' been put in actual danger more often, then perhaps we would have an excellent film on our hands. As it is, Sucker Punch is one of those films that you'll either really enjoy, or really dislike. I fall into the former category, and I say to give it a shot.

I wish I'd seen this in the cinema when it came out, because then I would have known to avoid all the DC tosh that followed. As with every Snyder movie I've seen the skilful visual storytelling promises so much but there's just nothing else there. Its excesses don't even make it offensive and outright repulsive like a Michael Bay flick, it's just... empty. It's a really kewl looking pop music video spliced with an ineffectual story that wants to imagine it's bold and challenging.

Said about many a film, nothing comes closer 2 being an actual video game. There's jaw-dropping graphics, licensed rock music, hollow avatars instead of characters& a structure of "story" between each new level which is meant 2 give the impression this is a Quest narrative rather than mindless shootouts w/ ciphers u don't care about. Worse is the film's ending: a message of self-empowerment that couldn't b more incongruous w/ the tale of unjust victimization & resigned martyrdom that preceded it

Overall Enjoyment: 15/40, Plot/Themes: 5/20, Cinematography/Direction: 5/20, Acting/Writing: 5/20 Somewhere in this was a solid theme about the degradation of women and how the audience is complicit in this process. Sadly, the characters, plot, and even the action all just felt rather empty-- Synder threw together popular cliches, but forgot to put any heart into it. It's fine to make a movie that criticizes it's audience; just make sure it's still a good movie in it's own right.

As others already said, either you'll like this movie or you'll hate it. For me, watching Sucker Punch feels a bit like being trapped in the brain of a pubescent boy with the appearance of: hot girls in short skirts, samurai warriors with guns, zombie-steampunk soldiers, dragons and robots. To wrap things up and as a silly excuse everything is a (caution: spoiler!) dream - not really original. In combination with a mediocre soundtrack and CGI effects this was a waste of precious lifetime.

Snyder is nothing if not a visual artist. The action sequences, and even "ordinary" sections, were beautifully shot and crafted. He also wears his influences on his sleeve, and treats them with clear respect. Unfortunately his screenwriting is ass. The story, such as it was, was as bland and unengaging as the characters themselves, and while I can appreciate the ambition, his obvious drawing from anime and video games sinks the movie under the weight of the problems of those same media.

Second viewing(!): Still as bad as the first time. Thought I'd see it again to see if the plot actually made sense and I had just missed stuff, turns out I hadn't, and it doesn't. I'm not sure it's, as OMGFridge says, the worst movie I have ever seen - that said, it's certainly the worst screenplay I have ever witnessed put on film. The music is quite good though. Then the music stops, and you're reminded of how shitty the film actually is with awful dialog and forced acting. Come on, Zack.

A film that, at least in its current state (we'll see what the director's cut is like), is visually excellent and delivers some great action, but is let down by an ambitious yet confusing story that bites off more than it can chew and characters that leave something to be desired brought by performers that try but are let down by poor dialogue. Polarizing to say the least, it's a failed experiment as a story that nevertheless still shows technical skill and a willingness to try and be different.

Man, I wish this movie didn't suck. A visual smorgasbord, with ultra-hot Emily Browning battling giant super ninjas and the like, but story-wise, it's utter, hollow gibberish. It really does seem like this is what'd result if a hyperactive male 15-year-old film buff got ahold of a camera and a budget, and I'd be lying if I said there weren't certain scenes and images that were enjoyable. But we're left with nothing in the end. Thanks for trying, Snyder.

Brilliant deconstruction of gender, power and sexual politics with some jabs at the fetishization of glamorous violence. I found it to be more of a creative horror film than the action film it's billed as, which explains why things don't always make narrative sense, though they make emotional sense for the characters. To call this style over substance is to miss the reams of obvious commentary, but I will admit that when faced with a choice Snyder did sometimes choose style over coherence.

Hmm. I loved the first steampunk scene with girls fighting (Charlie's Angels, learn!!), and the grotesque nightclub was top knotch, as were the characters in there (the cook, the mayor). Sadly, the movie lost its tempo in the middle and got lost in action sequences, which (while being good) turn the focus away from the main story and make it look like a cheap 3D action film. The ending was okay though. All in all - okay, but no cigar.

On the one hand it feels hollow and insubstantial - the story is a sketched-on teenage afterthought scribbled around some unrelated music-video-style action sequences. However, if you can put expectations aside, these spectacular sequences have enough visual flair, CGI and greenscreen camera-rotating trickery to happily entertain an idle mind for 90 minutes. It's so clearly the work of a literary midget but a technical giant. I'll forgive Snyder his sins and call this some kind of flawed fun.

I know being "over the top" with the action is kind of this movie's whole gimmick, but the action scenes just felt tedious to me. None of the actors really seemed into it (probably because they had to fight a lot of invisible special effects), and the action is 99% meaningless. The overall plot is fairly predictable, and I think the movie tries to make some social statements and shoots for some level of depth that it falls quite a bit short of. Some shots and special effects are good though.

Contrary to what a lot of people glanced at on the surface and either dismissed due to their first-year film sensibilities or thought was going to be an eye-candy wankfest or were concerned with anti-feminist rage missed out on the pretty direct text and sub-text, which is that Snyder made a movie about women trying to be more than what the male gaze does to them, but still being contained in it and having to live with that fact.

A movie literally designed frame-by-frame with a magnificent collection of remixes for it's soundtrack.

This isn't the happiest movie in the world but I could almost say that it might be one of the more stylish movies out there. This movie takes the slow-mo action from the Matrix to a new level. I love all the action scenes in this, even if they are a little out there, like Zombie Nazis or Space Robots. Emily Browning was just absolutely stunning in this. I mean wow. Kind of a bummer of an ending but it made sense. This movie had fantastic style and was all around really enjoyable.

Loved the first 10 minutes, but everything afterward is one gorgeous P.O.S. Perhaps Snyder should stick to scripts that aren't penned by himself...

I'll put my credibility on the line and say that this is the most misunderstood movie of the year. Snyder may be only a so-so writer, but his direction is pure genius and behind all those gorgeous effects, there IS substance. I can't wait for Snyder's Superman.

Snyder's obtuse, heavy-handed, oh-I-want-to-make-a-daring-film-like-Fight-Club steampunk fairy tale must frustrate even die hard videogame and anime fans. This team of cosplay girls with guns and katanas are hardly attractive: the film is nothing more than a clumsy mess of pop references, with uneven storytelling, dizzying CGI sequences, terrible covers of great songs (Beatles, Pixies) and an annoying motivational message all the way.

Oh, boy! This is something! Lots of teasing, lots of filling in the blanks, clean way of portraying sexual fantasies, plus a feminist message. Ha! And I thought that was impossible!

For a movie composed of scantily clad women it sure was gay and not in that lesbian prison movie way. Snyder usually has fantastic opening credit sequences and THERE WASNT ONE IN THIS, BOO BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Zach Snyder effect. He is such a visually cool director that all his movie trailers get me to such a high level of expectation that it's impossible for me not to be disappointed. To his credit, this movie is stylistically awesome and I really did like how the story was told. Unfortunately, it started a bit slow and dragged towards the end. I have my worries that seeing it on anything but a big screen will decrease it's enjoyment drastically, as all style and no substance rarely translates well.

Sucker Punch is very stylish and original. Snyder has mastered the art of making long, interesting action scenes. He knows exactly when to slow down and speed up the pace, and every moment this film shows the "fantasy world", it truly shines. The soundtrack is amazing. Most dialogue is cliche, every character lacks depth, and Jena Malone is the only cast member that stood out. The beginning scene sucked and after the first team member dies, the plot loses all creativity.

Z.Snyder needs a lot more more practice with screenwriting to bring it on the level with his direction. This said, plot is really bad. Too much sources for 'dream' scenes makes it annoying, since there are no connections. Also only map 'dream' is really good projection among 'escape items'. I expected some references and there are none mentionable. Overall it's only feast for eyes, some decent music and suffering for brains.
