...I liked it.

Sucker Punch...how can I begin to describe Sucker Punch?

I read some reviews before going to see the movie, and they were mostly negative. However, the trailers were too epic for me to not see it, so I did.

The mood of the first part of the movie (the real world) is mysterious and miserable. It was impressive how they could get so much through with so little speaking. The transitions between worlds is nice and smooth. The brothel serves to keep the plot going while the fantasy world serves to just be epic. I'll be honest, sometimes the action sequences got downright ridiculous, but that made perfect sense, since it was all a hallucination. Besides, it all fit in the brothel world and in the real world in some twisted way.

The movie felt like I was watching an anime, playing a video game and reading a comic at the same time. And it felt great. Seriously, I'd play this game, I'd watch this anime and I'd read this comic any day. Even if you don't think the same as I do in the above paragraph, you have to admit this film is just fun to watch. It's fast, it's sexy. At first I thought that would be all it would be, but I was wrong. Very wrong.

Overall he effects were nicely done, and the acting was decent enough. The message and the way it ends really moved me. It's a movie that will stay in my mind for a very long time. Even if it's a polarizing film, I think it'll stay in the public conscience.
