Sucker Punch

This movie has a lot of terrible characters, the story is dark and the comedy even darker. The setting is urban ghetto NYC and the music is awesome. Really cool songs. The story is pretty disturbing...the main character is a very bad thug, but then is inspired to get out of his situation, which leads to a series of things happening to him. He is a great actor. And the Russian thug is a terrifying actor. The story makes you question what you can do about your situation in life. I liked it-didn't love it-but am amazed that this is an independent movie and not made by a studio, considering how intense and action-packed it is.

I loved this movie. The cover image makes it look like a mediocre gangster film, but it's really great. Here's what I like about it: First of all, the acting was really good. Paris Campbell, who plays the main character (Mike Sullivan), is a really really great actor. I have no idea why he isn't famous yet. And he portrays a complex character who is tortured by his own past sins, and is trying to do the right thing. He is caught up in a world where there are no good guys, and he is trying to save a prostitute who has no interest in his good will. Mike is definitely a Christ figure in the film, and the religious metaphor is subtle but clear. I like the fact that in the end, good intentions do not necessarily mean a happy ending, and sometimes there are no good choices. This is a dark film, so if you're looking for a cookie cutter, predictable action film, this isn't the movie for you. But if you want to see an interesting, real film that has a spiritual side, you should check out Sucker Punch.

The make believe world of fighting monsters is the fun part, yet sometimes took too long. Of the real story, well you don't know which is the real story. After a while I didn't care anymore.

I thought it was a pretty decent low budget crime flick. The filmmakers did some things not normally seen in movies with the characters. There are a lot worse movies out there. Paris Campbell was the highlight. This movie prompted my interest to see other projects he has been in. His performance in Ghetto Dawg 2 (very stupid name) was outstanding. It was a better film. Will Sierra, the pimp, also showed a lot of talent. Considering the crap that mainstream Hollywood is making these days, I have found myself more and more interested in watching lower budget indy films. And if you are a hiphop fan, some classic artists played supporting roles - Greg nice, The Beatnuts & Leaders Of The New School.

It's just a bad film.Not as bad as R.I.C.C.O. but bad.It got me hooked at the beginging then totally lost me after that.The acting was way off then on then going way way way off.Do not see this movie at all costs,TRUST ME WITH ALL MY HEART!!!!The directors who are brothers are not the next HUGHES BROTHERS,who made really great films like DEAD PRESIDENTS,FROM HELL,AMERICAN PIMP,and MENACE II SOCIETY.The only person who made me watch this was the acting of Paris Campbell,who will be a great actor one day if he makes better films than this.Christina Caparoula also did a nice job for what she got.I hope THE FITTEST is 10 times better than this piece of crap!
