Hey FOOLS! I have been waiting excitedly to see footage from Sucker Punch ever since I got to ask director Zack Snyder about the film 2008. To put it simply he was excited. After watching the trailer I can see why, it is insane. There is no other way to describe it. So here is the official synopsis to try shed some light on things because I'm still not sure what I watched.
Set in the 1950s, "Punch" follows a girl who is confined to a mental institution by her stepfather, who intends to have her lobotomized in five days. While there, she imagines an alternative reality to hide her from the pain, and in that world, she begins planning her escape, needing to steal five objects to help get her out before she is deflowered by a vile man.
Sucker Punch is due for release 25 March 2011 and I am super psyched. Snyder is one of the special few directors showing vision and I hope he gives us a lot more films that look like this.
