JoBlo Originals's video: Sucker Punch - NOT As Bad As You Thought

When Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch premiered in 2011, it was met with a polarizing reception. Critics and audiences were off-put by its unique style, ambitious narrative structure, and the way it blended genres. As someone who initially viewed the film through a less mature lens, I found myself unimpressed, to put it mildly, by its convoluted plot and perceived lack of substance. Hell, I even watched it twice upon release just to make sure I wasn’t missing anything. As time went on, I had moved on from the stale taste it bestowed upon me. So much so that I had even skipped any future Snyder offerings. Yes, this includes his DCEU output. Maybe I’ll get to those one day. Who knows? However, one thing I do know is for certain: Zack Snyder loves himself a director’s cut of his films. Recently, he has expressed his determination to give his first original film the ol’ Snyder Cut treatment, even going as far as to say he has footage already shot for it. So, it got me thinking. Was this movie as bad as I remembered it? Or would my more mature eyes see something in this picture I missed on my initial viewings? Let’s see if third time’s a charm as I revisit Sucker Punch thirteen years later. Wanna support us?
