Why is it that this and every other bad review coming out for this movie today have piqued my curiosity?
I totally understand it, man. Its audacious–and I have to see movies like this for myself. You never know how its gonna hit you. I really was surprised we all agreed on how much it rubbed us the wrong way (pun intended).
In some ways sucker punch was original in the execution but to me it seemed like a lot of the ideas were not very creative. It’s worth a watch though.
