Review of Sucker Punch (2011) by Ryke916 — 31 Mar 2011

I may be biased with writing this because this is hands down my favorite movie of all time and all the people I went to see it with loved the story, graphics, the soundtrack, and the movie in general, but I digress.

I see absolutely no flaw in this movie. I was never bored while watching this, which I can't say for the majority of movies I have seen in my life, including some of my favorites. The cutaway dream sequences were awesome to watch and made the movie better as a whole.

The plot was solid and engaging. The only problem I have is not with the movie, but it's reviews. I suppose critics are just so jaded that when something good actually good comes out, but seems demeaning to women or something, it must be taken down.

I've read the comment that this movie has good graphics but a bad story many times and all I can think is "What do you think Avatar is?". At least Sucker Punch is like nothing else that has ever been in theaters.

Though I do have to admit to the fact that this movie does target a select audience, specifically young people. The movie basically revolves around the interests of 13-30 year olds. So I suppose people who don't fall in to that category might not see eye to eye with what this movie has to offer.

To those people I say, don't watch it. If you didn't want to see a movie with scantily-clad women killing things, don't watch that movie. All in all, this is an opinion, like any review, so I will finish by saying that it is a great movie, as long as it pertains to your interests.

Otherwise, don't watch it. P.S.
