"Sweet Dreams" - Emily Browning
I am my own worst critic and the movie Sucker Punch, sadly did not change this by any means. I knew going in that this was going to be all for fun, but I had hoped that there would've been some time spent on characterization. We got a gist of one girl's story, but there are 5 of them. We saw plenty of things in slow motion, but yet we didn't get to see "the dance" that did it all. It was like a teaser. Tempting us for more, but leaving us completely unsatisfied.
However, I have to say regardless of its close-minded portrayal of babes in battle, the one thing that I can't deny is how music plays a crucial (in this case, main) role in movies (see trailer below). Emily did an amazing remake so I had to take a moment to give Zack Snyder props for using songs like hers to tell his story. He has the ability to pack a lot of punch in a soundtrack, but a memorable movie must have an impactful story and be more than just a long, yet beautiful music video to knock me off my feet.
Lyrics:
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
Travel the World and the Seven Seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
Travel the World and the Seven Seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
