So yesterday night I took a young lady out and we saw Sucker Punch. Even though it is a new release there was hardly anyone in the theater so it might not be doing well.

The film was weird. I mean, if you know my posts, I appreciate weird and quirky things, but this film was just exceedingly bizarre. Steampunk German World War I zombies...lead by German World War I Freddie Kreuger? Versus girls in sexy dance outfits equipped with contemporary rifles and submachineguns, and a mecha?

Also, I noticed in the first hallucinatory fight scene against the giant samurai that the protagonist doesn't ride the safety on her 1911 with her thumb, which is what you're supposed to do.

I just mentally don't know what to do with that.

My biggest thought during the movie was duing the scene where the evil pimp who reminds me of Andrew Ryan from Bioshock executes two girls in the changing room with a 1911. They have this whole elaborate plan to escape from the facility by stealing a map, setting a fire, and so on, but all they really needed to do was rush the pimp and stab him with the stolen knife while he was standing in front of them and handling the 1911, and get control of the 1911. He was waving it around and talking and if he were behaving in that manner it would be relatively easy to disarm him. Also, after he executed the two girls, and he was dangling the 1911 between his thumb and index finger and saying how he didn't like guns, it would have been absolutely easy for someone to simply snatch it away from him.

Simple plans are usually best.
