Sucker Punch is an Instant Classic...

Rating: 10/10 (28 March 2011)

Where do I begin? In many ways, this movie is absolutely perfect as far as what movie's are meant. I was completely engaged and on the edge of my seat the whole time. I saw this last night in IMAX in San Francisco, and it blew my mind from start to finish. The whole auditorium was packed with hundreds of people, and there wasn't one noise that came from the audience the entire time. And at the end, everyone went into a frenzy shouting, clapping, half the crowd gave a standing ovation. In all honesty, this is the best movie I have ever seen in terms of pure entertainment. Every time a new song would start (and the soundtrack is amazing by the way), I would get chills up my spine because you know you're about to enter a world that's only seen in your dreams. And that's what you get. When Babydoll enters her fantasies- the colors, the sets, the cinematography, the backgrounds, the actors, the sounds, EVERYTHING is so beautifully intensified x100 that you can't help but just let go of your mind and let the breathtaking visuals take over. "300" was great, could have had more action. "Watchmen" was good, a little slow at times but still good. "Legend of the Guardians" was great. But THIS, THIS is a whole new beast of a film. It is Zack Snyder at his absolute best. It races at an unbelievable speed and ferocity that you gotta hold on tight. I'm 100% sure there won't be a better film than this for a long time. Zack Snyder just raised the bar in filmmaking..... REALLY HIGH.
My Score: 15/10
