How was the dialog and character development??

Beats me, but whomever did the costumes deserves two Academy Awards...

OBTW, the new “Captain America, The First Avenger” trailer is showing before “Sucker Punch” and that’s looking pretty good so far too...

Here’s the link to the first trailer....

I hate you guys.

You have neither Siskel skills, nor Ebert abilities.

And yes, I know that isn't much of an insult, but it was meant to be, and was the best I could come up with.

Got it in my Netflix que,i just watched his Watchmen special movie 3 1/2hrs long really enjoyed it,they mixed in Tales from the Black Freighter a comic book with in a comic book..

*YES*.

That was brilliant, and, as another Zach Snyder effort, I was hoping Sucker Punch would be something like it.

Kinda hard to beat though.

2 things to listen for without spoiling the movie...

A) Emily Browning plays Babydoll, and for the soundtrack she sings an absolutely killer version of Annie Lennox’s “Sweet Dreams (are made of this)”...

B) They also morph the sound for one of the action scenes into an incredible version of Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit” that will run chills down your spine.

And they roll the credits to an excellent redo of Roxy Music’s “Love is the Drug”...

This is the first really fun movie of its kind in a long, long time. We’re seriously considering a second viewing on the big screen.....

It was Moulin Rouge with guns. 300 Black Swans. The Heavy Metal sequel to the movie musical Chicago. It was a very guilty pleasure, I’ll admit.

yah...very well done IMV, and they could have easily earned an “R” rating with more foul language, but they didn’t go there either. It’s a racy movie, but there is no obscentity, and not a bit of nudity.

It wasn’t overly gory either, and it certainly had that potential too. But even the Germans are kept going with “clock works and steam” so slaughtering them by the hundreds looks a lot different too.

PG-13...
