So I've been around, I've seen the general reactions to the film, and everywhere I turn I see another rant on how Sucker Punch is sick, anti feminist, demeaning to women, misogynist, etc. Now, I'm not going to presume what's feminist or not.

I'm with you 125%. Personally I always feel those feminist nuts don't LOOK at the film, and only see the basics enough to bitch. If they even bothered to understand the film, then their argument is null and void, and they just can't have that!

It also seems to me anyone who whines against films never LOOK at the film long enough to realize their point is moot (same goes for the people who felt "The Silence of the Lambs" was anti-gay, which it openly wasn't).

Personally I found the film very empowering, and even John did. He said it took two views to fully get the film, but when you did it was a great experience.
