The trailer to Zack Snyder's (300, Watchmen) latest film, Sucker Punch is a bit of a trip. The film is set in the 1950's and follows Baby Doll, a young woman (Emily Browning) wrongfully placed in an insane asylum with five days to escape before she's lobotomized. To facilitate her escape, she retreats into a fantasy world of gatling gun wielding samurai, exploding Nazi zeppelins, and Scott Bakula. Still, it'll be interesting to see an $85 million girls-behind-bars movie from one of modern cinema's most interesting visual stylists.
Sucker Punch, also starring Vanessa Hudgens, Jena Malone, and Jon Hamm, comes to theaters in 2D and 3D on March 25, 2011.
