‘Watchmen’ and ‘300’ director Zack Snyder returns with this 1950s-set musical fantasy thriller. Due to the machinations of her evil stepfather, Baby Doll (Emily Browning) finds herself trapped in a mental institution, awaiting a lobotomy. Desperate to be free, she escapes into an alternate reality of her own making; a world full of warriors, weapons and weird, wondrous creatures, and where it is her mission to steal five objects in five days while being pursued by an unknown foe. As other inmates from the institution begin to appear in her fantasies, the differences between Baby Doll’s two realities become less pronounced. Soon, she and her friends realise that what happens in this alternate world will influence events in the ‘real’ one. Vanessa Hudgens, Abbie Cornish, Jena Malone and Jamie Chung co-star.

Sucker Punch has Moulin Rouge’s freewheeling disrespect for genre, cramming dragons, zombie steampunk World War I German soldiers, robotic samurai, military helicopters, and gun-toting, scantily clad superbabes into a series of hyperviolent fantasies that spring from the undulations of a schizoid madhouse inmate. Sucker Punch also has The Matrix’s disdain for the laws of physics, as svelte young women in tight clothes leap, spin, twirl, kick, and crash in slow-motion spectacles that only vaguely resemble how bodies actually move in space. On top of that, Sucker Punch has a video game’s disinterest in characters, narrative, sensible dialogue, or sense of any kind, really–anything that might get in the way of the next spasm of bullets and sword slashes. A troubled girl nicknamed Baby Doll (the preposterously glossy Emily Browning, whose china-doll looks previously appeared in Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events), traumatized by her impending lobotomy, reimagines her asylum as a hybrid cabaret/brothel. She and her just as whimsically monikered fellow inmates (played by Abbie Cornish, Jena Malone, Vanessa Hudgens, and Jamie Chung) use their feminine wiles and some kick-ass gyrations to escape… but things go very, very wrong. The relentless eye-candy comes from director Zack Snyder (Watchmen, 300), whose interest in decorative grime and glistening skin seems to short-circuit everything else. But there’s no denying that eye-candy does abound. Also featuring Scott Glenn in the Yoda-esque role of “Wise Man.” –Bret Fetzer
