I was a bit disappointed with Sucker Punch. I mean what I liked, I loved. Steam-powerd zombies in pickelhalbs. A dogfight between a B-25 and a Dragon. Flaming Zeppelins. Giant Samurai weilding mini-guns. It really made almost no sense, and I couldn't care less, loads of visually awsome, anachronistic violence. The fact that said violence was done by cute girls in short skirts was just the cherry on top. But that 20 minutes was surrounded by a prostitutes-in-peril framing story that, while very well done, was kind of...ookey. Somehow all the cheesecake that seemed mere anime brought to life in the more fantastic sequences seemed exploitive and creepy in the more realistic framing story. Still glad I saw it though.
