Close your eyes. Open your mind. You will be unprepared. From the Spartan slaughter of 300 to the visionary world of Watchmen, writer/director/producer Zack Snyder has transported audiences into visual dreamscapes of his creation. His latest cinematic mind trip takes us into the vivid imagination of a young girl (The Uninvited's EmilyBrowning) whose dream world provides the ultimate escape from her darker institutionalized reality. Unrestrained by the boundaries of time and place, she is free to go where her mind takes her, but her incredible adventures blur the lines between what's real and what is imaginary. Locked away against her will, but determined to fight for her freedom, she and four other girls battle everything from serpents to samurais on an unbelievable journey to set themselves free.

Critics Consensus: It's technically impressive and loaded with eye-catching images, but without characters or a plot to support them, all of Sucker Punch's visual thrills are for naught.

This was god awful. There was a lack of depth in the female characters so it's just eye candy with some dope action scenes. But without any substance, the gimmicks get old very fast.

Despite some incredible visuals and eye candy, this movie executed so poorly and backwards that it's offensive. The actresses were clearly sold a different movie than what was ultimately put on the screen. Emily Browning was greatly miscast.

Snyder packs on the thematic symbolism with as much subtlety as his three-story-high samurai toting a Minigun can provide.

Sucker Punch packs a pretty strong wallop. I enjoyed a lot of it, but I wish someone had warned me that a lobotomy was going to be a major plot point.

Here, Zack Snyder seems to have let adolescent fantasies and video game spectacle conquer the plot.
