Elmegyógyintézetbe zárják Babydollt. A nyomasztó valóság elől a lány az álmok világába menekül. A képzeletében játszódó különös történetben négy másik lány - a vonakodó Sweet Pea, a szókimondó Rocket, a dörzsölt Blondie és a hűséges Amber - társaságában kitör a börtönéből. Babydoll vezetésével a kis csapat fantasztikus álomháborúba kezd a valószerűtlenül gonosz lények ellen. Küzdelmük során el kell dönteniük, meddig képesek elmenni a túlélés és a szabadság érdekében. Különösen, hogy a valóság és a képzelet világa egyre jobban összemosódik. (InterCom)

Az Álomháború olyan, mint egy dekadens musical és egy buta videojáték-adaptáció kombinációja. Egy "valóságban" játszódó narratív vázra épül, amelyből musical számokba (videojáték-szintekbe) ágazódik. A történet váza azonban nem működik, és csak azért van, hogy összetartsa kitérőket a fantasy akciós jelenetekbe. És ezek a jelenetek, amelyekben a hősnők nácikat, nindzsákat, sárkányokat és orkokat a Gyűrűk Ura vagy robotokat az Én, a robot filmekből intéznek el, az első tíz percnél tovább nem működnek, mert csak egy vizuális bemutatás bármilyen innováció nélkül. Tarantino Kill Bill filmjével is vannak hasonlóságok a forgatókönyv felépítésében - de Tarantino "valamivel" jobb forgatókönyvíró, mint Snyder - az ő történetváza egyrészt szilárdabb volt, másrészt az egyes epizodikus kitérők továbbfejlesztették azt. Amiből az Álomháború filmet összeollózták, az öncélú, értelmetlen és nem szól semmiről. Egy popkultúrás összevisszaság, amelynek már papíron is problémás szaga lehetett.

Still going round and round I have to listen to the music that appeared in this movie. Even when writing this comment, I play it. It is precisely this music that turned a special fantasy into an incredibly dark gem, which is original in its dreaming and entertaining with all the characters that appear in the movie. The beginning of Sweet Dreams is perhaps the best version that the singer and actress Emily Browning has succeeded in. She showed the spirit in which the whole movie will be led. And it was flawless. The whole story is actually a tangle of dreams that Emily prepared in her head and the whole film offers a ton of perfect action that not only entertains, but is also great and full of great effects. But above all, it's fun and it was hard for me to look for anything else in the story. That's why I give it four stars. And that despite the fact that the ending honestly shocked me. Because it threw me from fun straight into reality. And it took little - a completely precise final monologue.

A teenage One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest in robotic Ninja underpants. A stupid shooter with a bunch of affected chicks in suspenders, acting as if they are in a cheap American porno, framed by a kind of pseudo-spiritual chatter about the power of man. What really disappoints me is the fact that Zack's visual montages are bombastic, but they completely miss the point – I don't know if it's their non-originality or that they are terrible self-serving, but Sucker Punch seems to me to be a wasteful mess that obscures the complete absence of soul with excess effects. It just confirms that Snyder is an excellent short film maker (although Sucker Punch lags behind the rest of his work in this regard) and that he leads the actors very benevolently – as long as he has solid material in front of the camera, it disappears, but once those revived teenage fantasies ring out, the result is disastrous. One advantage of this nonsense is that Watchmen seems like an even bigger miracle to me. But that's it (I curse myself now that I gave 300 such a low score...). P.S. The unreliable narrator has never been as unreliable as in this film (which takes away all his credit and effect).

Snyder is fantastic with visuals and music (anyone who has seen the brilliant but sadly underrated Watchmen knows this), but for God's sake, never, ever let him write his own scripts! If I were to rate only the composition of shots, the imaginative details, the spectacular slow motion (which, I don't know how Snyder does it, I don't mind it in his case) and the the soundtrack (“Army of Me” by Bjork made me foolishly believe I would love the film), it would be worth a full score. But the decadent pop-cultural, cringeworthy, scripted ballast, which also pretends to convey some higher message, was impossible to digest even with a full brain shutdown. Snyder is a great craftsman, but he needs a permanent whip over him and a humility within himself, which, on the other hand, was not lacking in his almost reverential adaptation of Moore's “Watchmen”.

I love Zack Snyder in Watchmen and Dawn of the Dead, but I don’t like him in the silly 300. Sucker Punch is much worse than 300, thanks God that I didn’t go to the cinema for it. This is just pointless teenage fantasy that pretends to have a meaning. I’m not able to argue why I think it only pretends so, because this time I couldn’t be bothered to look for it while watching it, and I just don’t want to think about this film any further. Even the action is not that exciting. A fail of biblical proportions.
