"It's technically impressive and loaded with eye-catching images, but without characters 또는 a plot to support them, all of Sucker Punch's visual thrills are for naught."
Critics:
Gun-toting hotties combat assorted villains and their robot henchmen in this tawdry, repellent action fantasy.
Snyder likes to think that his Russian nesting doll of a concept is enough to excuse its hollow center.
It's close to what Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez were after with their Grind House double-header, but shot through with Snyder's own psychotropic brio (which is something like the unholy union of David Lynch, Brian De Palma, and Ken Russell)
The movie spins out of control, until it collapses in a heap, senseless.
The baleful influence of David Lynch, kung-fu pictures and 셔터 Island lie behind its rancid lucubrations.
I don't doubt that Mr Snyder is possessed of an imagination; it's just that what he imagines is hackneyed, meretricious and boring.
Have we already found the worst film of the year?
If 당신 thought Zack Snyder's 이전 films, among them 300 and Watchmen, were over the 상단, 맨 위로 - cliché-embracing, muscle-bound pseudo-triumphs of digital effects over storytelling - they have nothing on Sucker Punch.
Proves that while masturbating over your cast may not make 당신 blind, it can impair directorial vision.
Snyder pulverises our senses with derivative digital 이미지 and obvious musical choices. But his failure to delineate the levels of 'reality' is confusing and self-defeating.
It's not often 당신 see a film that makes 당신 think, 'I wish I was watching Yogi 곰 again.'
Ambitious and visually impressive as a pop-video mash-up, but, lacking a strong emotional core, it doesn't quite cohere as a fully satisfying movie.
A series of extravagant computer-generated adventure scenarios linked 의해 grim mental hospital plot, Sucker 펀치 represents a particularly ambitious exercise in tedium.
Director Zack Snyder and his production crew clearly had great fun envisioning this swords-and-corsets fantasy. Few others are likely to approach their level of enjoyment.
The suckers here are the poor mugs who leave their dollars at the door. And for what? A seedy, desaturated, overstimulated simulation of a real movie. Schlock treatment for comatose gamers, and a bomb with a bright 담홍색, 핑크 체리 on top.
The movie is like an arrested adolescent's 구글 검색 run amok.
Map! Fire! Knife! Key! (Well, eat drink man woman to 당신 too, honey.)
Looks aren't everything. Case in point: Sucker Punch, a dazzling visual 디자인 that goes tone-deaf every time it opens its dumb mouth 또는 makes claims to profundity.
An indecipherable, hypocritical mess that proves 당신 can fill a movie with scantily-clad women with big 총 and it can still bore one to tears.
"Sucker Punch" is what happens when a studio gives carte blanche to a filmmaker who has absolutely nothing original 또는 even coherent to say.
My personal rule of film enjoyment goes a little like this: 당신 can be miserable 또는 pointless, but 당신 can't be both. Sucker 펀치 works hard to be both.
I can't be sure whether it's brilliant 또는 idiotic, although I'm pretty confident it's both, and not always in different places 또는 at different moments.
You've never seen a movie like Sucker Punch. And depending on your entertainment preferences, 당신 may not want to.
In the end, Snyder confuses going ugly for getting serious, and he destroys his movie completely.
Wild, loud, fetishistically stylized, and...numbingly dull.
There is nothing here to enjoy, beyond the tiny satisfaction in noting that the movie lives up to its name.
[The] mash-up set pieces blend into so-awesome-they're-awful slo-mo monotony, and the awful sisterhood stuff in between makes 당신 anticipate the action as though waiting for the bus.
[A] cacophonous, half-digested mass of 팝 문화 influences.
Zack Snyder's storytelling skills remain in 질문 in his latest CGI spectacular.
It provides sporadic 초 of splendid eye 캔디 separated 의해 분 of muddled exposition and flat acting.
"Close your eyes. Open your mind. 당신 will be unprepared," is the movie's ad slogan. Indeed. 당신 will be unprepared for a film packing this much confusing crud into a little less than two hours...
A wonderfully wild provocation - an imperfect, overlong, intemperate and utterly absorbing romp through the id that I wouldn't have missed for the world.
Snyder has described it as "Alice In Wonderland with machine guns," but it's 더 많이 like The Pussycat 인형 Present Steampunk Kill Bill, only 더 많이 assaultive and pandering than that 설명 suggests.
One feels for the talented actors swept into such hokum.
Director Zach Snyder offers a peek inside his head, which turns out to be a vomatorium of pop culture's every geeky element.

First Impressions: Empowerment. Women fighting back. Double speak = mind control. Fight for freedom. Rebellion and freedom. "Guide" = "Agent of liberation."
Look Again: Escape and dissociation. "Guide" = "A handler who owned the keys to her psyche, guiding her into the fracturing of her personality."
Final Words: Narrator. "Who honors those we 사랑 with the very life we live? Who sends monsters to kill us and at the same time sings that we'll never die? Who teaches us what's real and how to laugh at lies? Who decides why we live and what we'll die to defend? Who chains us? And who holds the key that can set us free?" Self-determination 또는 a 설명 of the handler's control of the slave's psyche?
"It's you. 당신 have all the weapons 당신 need. Now fight." Recall of what Baby Doll said previously.
Techniques: Illusion. Deceit. Double-speech.
