Zach Snyder’s latest creation, SUCKER PUNCH, is slowly gaining in popularity as the release date creeps closer and closer. We’ve seen a whole slew of character posters for the film, plus a full length trailer. Now, with the movie just over a month away from hitting theaters, expect to see a lot more of Snyder’s hot-girls-kicking-ass on your TV screen. This new clip doesn’t show us too much that we haven’t already seen before, but it sure does get the adrenaline (and hormones) flowing. The film follows the story of a young girl that is institutionalized by her wicked stepfather. After retreating to an alternative reality as a coping strategy, she envisions a plan which will help her escape from the facility. SUCKER PUNCH hits theaters March 25, 2011.
Check out the full synopsis of the film below.
Sucker Punch is an epic action fantasy that takes us into the vivid imagination of a young girl whose dream world provides the ultimate escape from her darker reality. Unrestrained by the boundaries of time and place, she is free to go where her mind takes her, and her incredible adventures blur the lines between what’s real and what is imaginary.
She has been locked away against her will, but Babydoll (Emily Browning) has not lost her will to survive. Determined to fight for her freedom, she urges four other young girls—the outspoken Rocket (Jena Malone), the street-smart Blondie (Vanessa Hudgens), the fiercely loyal Amber (Jamie Chung) and the reluctant Sweet Pea (Abbie Cornish)—to band together and try to escape their terrible fate at the hands of their captors, Blue (Oscar Isaac), Madam Gorski (Carla Gugino) and the High Roller (Jon Hamm).
Led by Babydoll, the girls engage in fantastical warfare against everything from samurais to serpents, with a virtual arsenal at their disposal. Together, they must decide what they are willing to sacrifice in order to stay alive. But with the help of a Wise Man (Scott Glenn), their unbelievable journey—if they succeed—will set them free.
