In fact, this film is really not only CG, loli and SM, it is very interesting to think about the plot carefully. The whole movie can be divided into three layers of worlds, the madhouse - "Club-" war world, each layer of the world is the fantasy and projection of the upper world.

First of all, the insane asylum is the real world. The heroine was sent here by her stepfather because she killed her sister by mistake, and bribed the guards to arrange for a lobectomy operation five days later. In the end, the scene was cut back to reality, and the heroine was operated on. , but another supporting actress was rescued by her and was able to escape. This supporting actress does exist in the real world, because when she first entered the insane asylum, she appeared on camera; and after the heroine had surgery, the female doctor also mentioned that she helped other patients escape.

The Club is the world imagined by the people in the madhouse. The question is, who is this world imagined? I naturally thought it was the world imagined by the heroine at first, but now I think it is actually the world imagined by the escaped supporting actress. The most crucial evidence is the old driver who got help after the supporting actress escaped from the insane asylum: this old driver has only been seen by the supporting actress, and the heroine has never seen it, but she has always existed in the world of war as a prophet before. Therefore, both World at War and the Club that gave rise to World at War can only be a product of the consciousness of the supporting actress. In addition, the voiceover at the end of the film has been prompting to say, "You thought it was A's story, but it was actually B's story" and so on, which felt like saying this.

In this way, the rationality of Club's existence is also well explained. Because the heroine is a normal person, but the supporting actress is really a bit crazy, so the supporting actress does not want to face the reality of the insane asylum, but imagines the entire insane asylum as a club, and the patients become the female public relations who solicit guests in the club , the nurse became the boss and thug of the Club. The dancing in the club is a metaphor for the assault and molestation of female patients by nurses in madhouses in the real world. When watching the movie, I always felt that the design of the dance was very strange. Why is the heroine the best dancer, and why does she ask men to watch her dance every time she implements the plan? From the perspective of metaphor, it is easy to understand: the heroine, as a good loli of sound mind, can naturally seduce men's desires more than other crazy patients; in the process of seduction, those men naturally can't get away Pay attention to the whereabouts of other patients, so that you can implement the preparation plan to escape.

The final world of war appears in the imagination of the heroine dancing every time in the club, but the whole club is imagined by the supporting actresses, including the heroine in the club; so in the world of war, only the old drivers who are known by the supporting actresses can be a prophet. As for why there is a world of war, it can be understood that when the heroine seduces the guards in reality, of course, she has to imagine something else in her mind to comfort herself. This other thing becomes the world of war in the Club; and the little loli wear SM costumes are low-cut, high-heeled, and lace, and the scenes of killing monsters with knives and guns are indeed enough to satisfy the curiosity and sensuality of the majority of otakus~



Finally, to sum up this story, our heroic loli heroine was killed by his stepfather Framed and locked in a lunatic asylum, he sacrificed his looks to help the sisters escape from the wolf's den, and even gave up on leaving at a critical moment, creating an opportunity for the supporting actress to escape. The crazy supporting actress adapted the story into a Club escape according to her own fantasy, while the poor heroine had her front lobes removed and became an idiot. Fortunately, the conspiracy of the guard and his stepfather was finally revealed, and the supporting actress was able to embark on the journey home with the help of the bus driver. And for those who just look at it, there are also blockbuster movies with very pornographic and violent CGs that are enough to YY~

    After watching the trailer, I thought it was just Sailor Moon's version of "Flying Over the Cuckoo's Nest"; after watching the film, I sincerely wanted to believe that the director really wanted to express some thoughts, "Fate, guard and be guarded", I want to express it in an ingenious way, but Lori Heis and her breasts are too much! However, as always, I love Snyder's understanding of the soundtrack and visual representation!

Sucker Punch quotes

  • High Roller: All I require from you is a slither of a moment. To have you not by force, but simply as a man and a women. To see in your eye, that simple truth, that you give yourself to me freely. Not because you have to, but because you want to. Now of course, for such a gem, I will give as well. I'm willing to give you freedom. Pure and total freedom. Freedom from the drudgery of everyday life. Freedom as abstract ideal. Freedom from pain. Freedom from responsibility. Freedom from guilt. From regret. Freedom from sadness. Freedom from loss. The freedom to be happy. Don't close your eyes; I need you to look at me. The freedom to love.

  • Dr. Vera Gorski: I want you to dance.

    [Bjork's "Army of Me" playing over speakers]

    Dr. Vera Gorski: ...

    [Music stops]

    Dr. Vera Gorski: If you do not dance you have no purpose. And we don't keep things here that have no purpose. You see, your fight for survival starts right now. You don't want to be judged? You won't be. You don't think you're strong enough? You are. You're afraid. Don't be. You have all the weapons you need. Now fight.
