Zack
Snyder (director of Dawn of the Dead, Watchmen and 300) has described
Sucker Punch as "Alice in Wonderland with machine guns," including
dragons, B-25 bombers, giant mech suits, and armies of undead German
soldiers!
Sucker Punch, set in the 1950s, tells the story of Baby Doll (Emily
Browning), who is trying to hide from the pain caused by her evil
stepfather while imprisoned in a mental institution in which she starts
to imagine an alternate reality. She plans to escape from that
imaginary world, but to do that she needs to steal five objects before
she is captured by an unknown adversary. In order to cope with her new
stressful situation, she enters the hyper-real world of her
imagination, and the lines between reality and dream begin to blur.
Lessons learned in this fantasy world could help Baby Doll and her four
friends escape their real-world fate.
Sucker
Punch is an upcoming American action-fantasy film written by Steve
Shibuya and Zack Snyder, and directed by Snyder. Sucker Punch features
an ensemble female cast that includes Emily Browning, Abbie Cornish,
Jena Malone, Vanessa Hudgens and Jamie Chung. The film follows a young
girl in the 1950s about to be lobotomized as she attempts to escape an
asylum with her inmate friends.
