So this movie came out back in 2011, but I recently got Sucker Punch on Blu-ray, I already seen the movie, but the Blu-ray version has 17 minutes that DVD doesn't have.

Now I personally love this movie and see it as one of those movies ahead of it's time. I hope it become more appreciated in the future. So, I'm here to give my thoughts on the movie and with hope, turn people onto this movie and help it find it's audience.

Now, there will be some spoilers, but I'll warn anyone who reads this who hasn't seen the movie yet.

Here is a short sum up(Spoiler free) for those who won't wish spoil a thing for them.

Sucker Punch takes place in the 1960. It revolves around five girls who are only referred to by "Babydoll","Sweetpea","Rocket", "Blondie", and "Amber". These four girls only wish to be free from the cruelty of the world and will fight through imaginative worlds to get it.

This is a somewhat full explanation of the plot and thus, maybe full of spoilers.

The movie begins with Babydoll, our main character, sitting in her room as a doctor comes in to tell Babydoll her mother has passed. Babydoll and her little sister mourn the lose of their mother as their stepfather is pleased he will get all of the mother money. But he then goes into a drunk rage as he reads the will and finds all the money was left to Babydoll and her sister. HE goes after the two girls (Spoilers) which ends with Babydoll accidently killing her sister with a gun as she tries to kill her stepfather.(Spoilers over) Babydoll's stepfather then takes her to a mental home trying to cover up what happened by getting Baby lobotomized in five days.

In the mental home, a therapist tries to get through the girls by having them act out their trouble and pains on a stage. In the five days Baby's mind changes the world of the mental home into a brothel where their stage acting is the dances they put on for the clientele of the brothel; and where Baby has been sent their to have her virginity sold to "The high roller". There she meets her fellow "Dancer" Sweetpea, her sister Rocket, Blondie, and Amber.

One day when Baby is asked to dance for the first time she slips into a fantasy world where a old man tells her to get her freedom she must fight and get five thing, fire, a map, a key, and a knife. Baby is confused as he said five to which he tells her the fifth item is a mystery and require great sacrifice but will lead to victory.

Now baby needs the help of her new friends to help ensure the all can escape. Over the course of the film Baby and her friends go into fantastical lands such as a old Japanese temple covered in snow, a fight in the trenches of a steampunk world war 1, into a medieval castle, and into the far future.

With each adventure comes new dangers and risk to the girls in both the fantasy, and real world.

(Spoilers)As for my thoughts on the movie, well, I love it. There's a heavy theme of imagination being the "Virginity" of our minds and how it can help us escape the world's green, sadness. and suffering.(Spoilers end) The music and visuals of this movie help immerse you into the world of imagination and absolute fantasy. The actresses are top notch and go into their roles. Two of the girls have the short end of the stick, Amber and Blondie, and the have little to no character development.

If you're interested in a movie with awesome action with girls who can kickass and take names, then this is a movie for you. But it's not all about action and kickass music and visuals, there's a deeper story that you MUST keep and open eye and mind for.

I hope this review was informative and helpful, and to finish this off, a quote form the movie.

" Everyone has an Angel. A Guardian who watches over us. We can't know what form they'll take. One day, old man. Next day, little girl. But don't let appearances fool you, they can be as fierce as any dragon. Yet they're not here to fight our battles, but to whisper from our heart. Reminding that it's us. Its everyone of us who holds power over the world we create." ~~ Sweetpea.
