Sucker Punch 8/10
IMDB summary: A young girl is institutionalized by her abusive stepfather. Retreating to an alternative reality as a coping strategy, she envisions a plan which will help her escape from the mental facility.
Comment: If you are not a fan of comic book movies, beautiful half naked women, dragons, ninjas and nazi robots, then this film is not for you. I was entertained with the film, but the underlying theme in this story is how Baby Doll copes with her current environment, which is by imagining she is leading a group of assassins that need to acquire five items to unlock their freedom. In each mission, the group encounters 50 foot samurai’s, dragons, steam punk Nazis, and robots before they can acquire each item.
