After ten minutes of this film, I walked out. I had some doubt about this decision until I read on ComicBookMovie.com how the writer/director Zack Snyder explains the meaning of the title: "I think sucker punch sums it up for me. Look, literally it's like a mechanism in the film that kind of brings us back into reality I think. But I think on the other hand, because the movie is a slight indictment it talks about geek culture and pop culture, it talks about the why of the action cinema and stuff of that nature it's also a sucker punch because I kind of designed it that you go to this movie for entertainment and you get a little bit f*cked up by it, hopefully. (http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/BrentSprecher/news/?a=33931)" In other words, the whole point of the film is to punish people like me who go to see action films. He goes on to compare action films to brothels and to compare those of us who watch them to leering men who visit brothels. This makes me very angry. If I had known about this as I walked out of the movie, I would also have asked for my money back. Maybe I still will ask for my money back. Maybe I will go back to the theater with my ticket and my receipt and demand my admission fee.
