"Sucker Punch" is a movie meant to appeal to the 13 year old boy within us all (ahem). It has girls, guns, dragons, biplanes, giant mechs, and probably a nuclear-powered kitchen sink (although it isn't in the film poster). Slated for a March 25, 2011 release after some delay, it will hopefully be more than just a collection of boobs and explosions...it's by the guy who did "300" and that owl movie, so...yeah. I mean "hopefully" in the most hopeful way possible.
Also: more crazy women! -- the protagonist is in a mental institution. The more things change, Hollywood, the more things change...
Here's the new poster, covering all the key 13 year old bases:
This movie is like meeting a cute girl in a Ramones T-shirt. You get all excited, and then you remember it's not 1979 anymore, and people look at YOUR blue hair and think you're into The Killers or some shit.
Check out the trailer below.
Can "Sucker Punch" deliver? I'm praying it does. The angsty voice-over at the beginning is awful, but the explosions sure are pretty...
And here's to something old school that always delivered: Tank Girl!
