Sucker Punch: What did you think?



A few of this blog's contributors, as well as some of its visitors, were pretty excited about Zack Snyder's latest slow-motion extravaganza, Sucker Punch. Now that it's here, what do you think? Were the attractive ladies and low-cut shirts enough? I was going to post a thought-stream of my experience watching it, but I got bored, and it contained spoilers, and though part of me would like to ruin it for people who haven't seen it yet, I think Snyder does a thorough job of that himself.

Thoughts?



For those interested, I have a full, almost snark-free review posted HERE.

    Allow mw to break it down for you brad, it went thustly, first half of the movie is just "what's going on?" when we make our way to the second half, it's "what's going on and when will it end?". Not even a healthy portion of John Hamm&eggs was able to save this movie, and I think his handsomeness is something we can all agree on. One also has to ask the question, if all of the scenes that were slow motion (goodness knows there were many, goodness knows) how long would the movie be? The answer is not as long, and that's why I give sucker punch 5 out of 5 possible wet hot kisses.

    And I will be the first one to admit that I was excited for this movie, and bones will back me up on that. It could be because I like the silversun pickups band alot, who knows. I was greatly disappointed, therefore, I give it 10 out of 5 possible beards.

    I was going to write a review as well but Brad's is pretty much spot on. Especially this... "It would have been nice to see a capable heroine in an action film, but what we see is the disingenuous depiction of a girl who escapes objectification into a role-play world of objectification as a prostitute, from which she uses her imagination to escape into the Zack Snyder world of nonsensical hyper-fetishistic objectification."

    Yes, I can confirm that Pete-O was excited for this movie but I remember being the only one excited for Watchmen. I can also confirm that he likes bands and hot kisses.

    This movie isn't so bad that it's funny. It's just so bad that it puts you in a foul mood. Therefore I give it 1 Cummy Kiss out of 7 Cummy Kissys.

    Oh and yes, Jon Hamm is very handsome. I'd like to give him a cummy kissy I'll tell you that much and more if you ask.

    We'd find new ways to use the meatus. Then we would fill the room with the smell of our farting.

    Well, so much for the stirring debate I was hoping for.
