Man. People that think Sucker Punch is a highly elaborate work of art that people just don't "get" really need to reevaluate what art is!

There's nothing to "get," really. It's all laid out in front of you.

There's just nothing of substance there.

You should do the opposite of what he says.

I thought it was extremely shallow, but that's why I loved it. Sometimes a mindless entertainment movie is great fun. If it had some sort of artsy deeper meaning, it would have come off as preachy and I'd have hated it.
