I would highly recommend this movie. I watched it when it first came out and to this day I remember about it every once in a while, I believe all the negative reviews it received by so called "critics" come from the fact it's not easy to understand.

It pains me to give this movie such a poor grade because it really is so well done. Zack Snyder has such a firm grasp on his look, he's carved out his own genre of movie. He's also proved that a movie cannot survive on looks alone.

This movie is really dumb. In the opening moments of the film they set up that the brothel is all an imagined reality, and everything that happens there had no meaning. We then spend the entire movie in this space, except for a few moments when the main character dances and enraptures everyone somehow (I have no idea what this translates to in the asylum). These moments look cool, but again they hold even less meaning to what is happening. So then at the end of the movie they reveal that it was an asylum the entire time and we are meant to be shocked by this, even though the movie told us at the beginning. None of the story is interesting or makes any sense or holds any meaning. The only good parts of the movie are the ridiculously stylistic action scenes, however they are only mildly amusing. This movie was a big disappointment, as I was expecting mind bendy reality dream like story telling but I only got a meaningless drivel with over the top action scenes connecting them.

Plot it's a bit meh, but love visual style.

When main character 'Babydoll' enters her dream state the images are impressive and the combat is fun to watch. In fact it's often jaw-dropping. When she's in the real world it's not only confusing but boring.

This is an amazing looking movie but the story is non-existent. It's nothing but a long but pretty music video.

The visuals are stunning, the soundtrack is awesome, the action scenes are great! The plot is where things get tricky... Not because it sucks, but because this is not a straightforward action movie. It works in metaphors, analogies and assumptions, not everything is what it appears to be. In a sense, this may actually be an action movie which requires some thinking from the viewer. So, by joining brains and brawns together in the same movie, no wonder it tanked, since it failed to cater to a specific wider audience (becoming some sort of a niche movie). Regardless, the top comment around here gives some wonderful insight about the plot.
Even if you can't fully grasp what is going on in this movie, _Sucker Punch_ is still one hell of a ride!

It's not a movie, it's a video clip

I've watched this movie just now. I noticed the underlying story halfway through the movie, though i love the story it portrays i cant help but rate this a three. it felt like a b-movie visually which distracted me horribly away from the story. if there is a movie i wish there would be a remake for it is defiantly thisone.

Bizarre :) Performances of the girls weren't that good imo. Except Emily :3
The plot was difficult to get into but eventually the plot doesn't matter that much. It sends you a message with a lot of punch behind it and that's why this is a valid movie.

A plot would be nice to accompany all the moving and running around with cool music!... Also some god performances.
Plain bad, stick to the trailer.
