    Sucker Punch 3/25/11

    Anyone else wanting to see it ? I think the trailer looks pretty wild definitely going to see this one. Perhaps style over substance but pistol packing sword wielding hot chicks what's not to like.

    Just went and saw it. Wasn't what I expected. Seems like it was edited down for PG-13. I did like it , hope there is director's cut.

        I'm curious. Since it was clearly marketed as a film for 13 year old girls what where you expecting?

          ...if anything it was marketed towards 13 year old boys?

          I thought it was decent. Something of a thinker, even though the ending was sort of obvious from the get-go.

            Are you calling me a girl? Why I outta :nutkick: :lol:
            If the movie studio is really aiming for that audience I think allot of the point will be lost on them. Allot of the metaphors in the film were quite adult oriented IMO.

            Well to be honest the first trailer I saw didn't show any reference to a mental hospital it was all action a 25' tall samurai wielding a gattling gun, a dragon, gun totting sword wielding hotties in mini skirts It was an early teaser for it. I usually try to avoid trailers after the teaser as Hollywood usually gives it all away by the time the movie comes out and ruins it.

            So I wasn't quite sure what to expect or make of it but I think Zack Snyder is a pretty capable director. I've liked his previous films Dawn of the Dead, 300, The Watchmen, Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole . I actually liked the director's cut of the Watchmen much better than when I saw it in theaters.
            So I hope he does a director's cut of this one. As I said there were at least two parts for sure that were noticeably edited.
            Most people will probably write it off as style over substance but I disagree. Not that it's a masterpiece but I think allot of the point of the film will be largely overlooked because of all the stylized action.

                I plan on seeing this soon. I really liked the way Transformers, the first movie, was marketed. I remember seeing only tiny teasers where you saw the transformers title transforming. Since I used to watch the cartoon when I wa s a kid, naturally, I loved the movie.
