I should have known better

I will watch pretty much any movie put in front of me, apart from the freaky Asian horror flicks the wife likes to watch, in fact just yesterday I watched Super Troopers at 9:30am just because it was on.
But two days ago I found myself with a movie that I had nothing good about sat before me, Sucker Punch.
The premise of the film is something I didn't quite catch during my viewing, which is not surprising as I only managed 28 minutes of this mess before switching off.
I sat through 300 without having the need to end the pain, hell I even managed to make it through Meet the Spartans with no ill effects.

I found Watchmen powerful if not compelling, but Sucker Punch for some reason never sat right, I'm sure that had I managed to finish the film some of the things that bugged me may have been resolved (The transitions to the other world and the need for 30ft samurai)
But I will probably never know, unless someone tells me, and even then I probably won't listen.

Oh and as a side note, it seems that in my old age a bunch of hot ladies isn't enough to hold my attention, not in a mainstream movie anyway
