    Sucker Punch--Who's in?

    This thing is getting trashed all over the place, but the criticism is so predictable I'm actually more intrigued. It looks like a hot mess, but could be fun to watch.

    I'm going to watch Sucker Punch because I was impressed with the cinematography of 300.

      I'll definitely check it out on blu-ray, but I'm not expecting much besides visual overload and a hefty MEH feeling afterwards.

        Good review. I'm mainly anti-Snider (did like his Dawn of the Dead), but the clockwork World War One zombies do sound interesting. I wonder why hot babes in short skirts fighting are acceptable to me in 70's or 80's films, but kind of weird and repugnant in new films.

                Hmmmm....

                After 30+ years of Japanese cartoons, this sort of thing feels kinda old hat to me. (Which is weird, considering how insanomatic the film looks.) But I'll probably catch it on cable in a few months.

                    I don't typically see movies at the theater, but I might go out for this one. I love Zack Snyder's directorial style; even if there isn't a whole lot of substance there, the visuals are always memorable.

                      You guys waiting to rent it will be sitting on your couches saying "Man, this movie is totally stupid, but I bet it looked awesome on the big screen."

                          Maybe I'll go tomorrow night. Theatre should be less crowded.

                            If you're going to wait until it's cheaper, I highly recommend a 2nd run theater. Unless you have a wall-sized tv and home theater system, you'll miss out on the few things that make it watchable.
