My Review of Sucker Punch

Rating: 7/10 (31 March 2015)

I give this movie a 7 out of 10. The Movie is about a young girl who is sent into an asylum by her evil step dad and then creates and alternate reality in her head in order to find a way to escape. Emily Browning did an amazing job at portraying Baby Doll, her real name (in the film) was not used because they were given stripper names. This was not just a normal asylum. During the film the director, Zack Snyder, used many different elements including music and camera angles to give a sense of suspense or shock during the scenes. What i think makes this such a great film is because it is very serious about a girl being trapped and misused, however in her alternate realities, Baby Doll gets to fight in many engaging action scenes throughout the movie instead of watching her dance on stage. Which also helps make the movie more about the character and not about half naked girls dancing on stage for fat old men smoking cigars.
