Sucker Punch to get an R Rated Extended Bluray - Page 7

just watched it twice.

i think this is one of the best movies i've seen this year.

very different and creative. really like how he portrays the layers
of fantasy. don't understand why so many people dislike it.

Me neither. My mom even said the same thing.

Finally saw this over the weekend. Not a very good film at all, definitely won't be getting a second viewing.

I had never seen this movie, but I have seen most of zacs other works, but I went out on a limb and bought it.

I must say, this movie is quite good.

I've heard all the banter about how superficial it is, I don't make it out so. I found the story had good depth and substance, and the entire journey was very rewarding.

props to Zac for taking movie making to the next level.

funny how people either love or hate this film.

i watched the adjustment bureau last night.

sucker punch is a way better flick

my 2 teenage boys watched it the second time i did.
they both loved it and want to watch it again before it goes back to bb

I ended up picking up a used copy of this, looking forward to re-watching it and with the extra 15 minutes that was not in the copy I rented from bb.

I really like the proverbial father figure and his nuggets of wisdom passed onto the team as a father would do so to his own daughters, the genesis of the movie.

sure these were not new concepts and they also weren't pounded home as eye opening realities, but they were instead spouted in inkling of an eye, almost as an after thought, as the teams were talking on their missions... Dont write checks with your mouth that your arse can not cash... If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything... good words to be sure.

In fact I found the whole "Empowerment" refreshing, while I am sure many thought this move was exploitative, it was in fact nurturing and a very very sad story.

Men giveth, and men taketh away... use your powers to the best of your natural abilities.

i also really liked the soundtrack to the movie. fit quite well.

first time i can remember anyone using tomorrow never knows
in a flick

Cool, let us know how it compares for you.

ya me too.

wonder if adding to the movie will make it better or just dilute it.
it already is very well edited and seems right just the way it is.

Not horrible, but not great. There are some great visuals and action sequences, it just loses me a bit in that


I think I would have preferred the steampunk-Nazi war movie than putting it in the trappings of the asylum story.

I like the DC...

It's just a shame that the true, real ending will probably never make it to home video:


...Cause this is what I would want to see.

The movies ending definitely feels a bit limp compared to what came before. That ending would have helped enormously in that respect.

I hate to nitpick, but they weren't Nazis. The Germans in WWI were fighting under Kaiser Wilhelm, not Hitler.

It's one of my pet peeves, sorry.

Dang, you're right of course - don't have a WWI setting very often in movies or games, so I just said Nazi out of habit.

LOL, I was going to do the same reply.
cheers

you're saying this was the ending in the dc, but most people will never see
it unless they buy it as nf and bb won't carry the dc?

The DC was not and most likely will never be released. What we have is the extended cut, not the director's cut. That ending I mentioned above was just the original ending intended by Snyder himself. I'm sure he would have liked to be able to go back to the editing room and make his proper cut, but the film didn't make enough money so WB said no I guess. The extended cut, which I own, doesn't have this ending.

too bad it won't get made and too bad most people don't get this gem of a film.

i think it's his best work to date

I know what you mean. For every movie based on WWI we get like 400 based on WWII, which is too bad because I find them both equally fascinating.



Ditto.

[QUOTEFor every movie based on WWI we get like 400 based on WWII, which is too bad because I find them both equally fascinating.][/quote]

Agreed, would love to see more movies from that period.

Besides being a fantasy version of events, most of the movie is a flashback to the events leading up to his arrival.

Just finished watching this for the second time. My wife was very interested in the story but dozed off in one of the dream sequences, I think she was more confused that out of all the girls I liked Blondie the best because I have a thing for butt chins

So I watched the extended and agree that it does add some worthy elements to the movie. I enjoyed the song sequence and felt the end discussion between Babydoll and "the high roller" added some worthy considerations to ponder. In the end though I came away with a couple possible scenarios.

The problem with all of these theories is that there is evidence in the film that support and discredit each one, back to square on.

Target has this for $14.99 this week, I decided to pick it up.

Scenario C is mine too.
...regardless of the 'ending we've never seen'
