Idiosyncratic, atmospheric and engaging fantasy

With its rustic-futuristic visuals, synergic use of classic rock music, overt sexuality, and dreamlike action sequences, SUCKER PUNCH feels like a live action homage to 1981's HEAVY METAL with a heaping helping of MATRIX folded in for good measure. Excellent, quirky performances from a bevy of skilled young actresses serve to enhance the idiosyncratic nature of this film.From its atmospheric use of color to its smallest detail (think a snowflake melting on an eyelash), SUCKER PUNCH is a visual feast. The movie sounds great, too. Contemporary versions of songs like "White Rabbit," "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)," and "Love is the Drug," to name a few, harmonize well with both the imagery and the unique, fantasy-within-a-dream storyline.Like many, I'm scraping the bottom of the Netflix quarantine barrel and wasn't expecting much more from this movie than a forgettable distraction. I couldn't possibly have been more pleasantly surprised. SUCKER PUNCH grabbed me from its third-wall-busting opening shot and held my attention right to the eyebrow-raising ending. I'll be watching again. Soon.7 stars.

One word... underrated!

Not everyone can see through an emotional story in a visually-stylized movie. Besides the spectacular cinematography, editing, action sequences, there's also a touching story behind it. It's not a movie for everyone, but I was actually appreciated Zack Snyder's vision and his visually brilliant storytelling. Although there are cons in this movie, I actually love how the concept of fantasy and reality and blurring line between them are being portrayed in this movie. Also, I love the ensemble cast in this movie, especially the 5 female leads. Either way, it has got to be one of the most overlooked movies of the last decade.
