Sucker Punched by Red Riding Hood

I need to learn how to pick them better.  It seems like two of the movies on my list have turned out to be anti-woman.  If this is the case, I cannot pay $9 to see them. So sadly I will not be adding my own views on both films, until they are on Netflix or online.

I feel like I should have known, with all the lingerie and school girl outfits, that Sucker Punch was going to be a little misogynistic but if A.O. Scott calls you out on it then it must be bad.  Shame on you Zack Snyder Dawn of the Dead was an excellent movie (or should I say remake?).  It seems like all his movies after that were lacking substance. Although I quite enjoyed 300, if it weren't for the jaw-dropping visuals and sexy 8-packs that movie would have been nothing but cheese.

So, I now hope that the other films that I added to my list are somewhat enjoyable.  Otherwise, I am going to start watching foreign films ONLY!
