Nice little Comic Action

Rating: 7/10 (14 March 2017)

"Sucker Punch" is mainly based on action. It tells the story of a young girl, who is sent to psychiatry by her cold-hearted stepfather and learns to stand up for herself and others through a parallel world she creates.
While it is surely not the greatest of its kind, the movie creates quite a nice atmosphere in my eyes, that makes it easy to arrive in the comic-like world the story is settled in. Though I'm not sure if the metaphors always work for me (I'm still kind of confused in how far who is involved and in charge), their concept surely is creative and, in a very simple conclusion, quite entertaining.
I do understand why some might dislike the film, it has its weaknesses and especially for people that are more familiar with this genre there probably is a lot to at least discuss controversially. Nonetheless I can say that for me this works well for an entertaining evening and if you don't hope for much more you won't be disappointed.
