好抵呀,幾廿蚊可以睇咁多次~ 本來我都只係當[Sucker Punch]係一套萬分eye candy既cult片,之但係網上blog見到 路人八*對套戲極深入解讀,如 ”五件寶物都有不同的深層意義,象徵著不同的人生態度”,”幾位女角係代表主角唔同既人格投射”…有點暈,但就令我再去重新組織一下個劇本。尤其係 路人八提出成個故事其實Sweet Pea才是主角呢個點。

記得睇完套戲,有時間,先再睇以下,因為你好大機會又再睇多一次套戲..
開場旁白,留意bold字 ”Everyone has an angel. A guardian who watches over us. We can’t know what form they’ll take. One day, old man. Next day, little girl. But don’t let appearances fool you. They can be as fierce as any dragon. Yet they’re not here to fight our battles but to whisper from our heart reminding that it’s us. It’s every one of us who holds the power over the worlds we create.”
“We can deny our angels exist convince ourselves they can’t be real. But they show up anyway. At strange places. And at strange times. They can speak through any character we can imagine. They’ll shout through demons if they have to. Daring us, challenging us to fight.”
同最後Babydoll叫Sweet Pea走時講”This was never my story. It’s yours.”
即係Babydoll其實係Sweet Pea既 “Guardian” ”Next day, little girl”,想佢重返社會(因為Sweet Pea係因為內疚Rocket而自願走入Madhouse)。Babydoll打咁多仗其實唔係”fight our battles but to whisper from our heart. Daring us, challenging us to fight” 。而且去到Sweet Pea成功逃脫時,之前FF裡面個智者化身成巴士師機幫佢 “One day, old man”
未夠說服?再睇埋下邊:
當Babydoll去到精神院時(現實mode),佢繼父同院長討價還價之時,個focus竟然係去左Sweet Pea度,Dr. Vera Gorski 對住佢講”What you’re imagining right now. That world you control. That place can be as real as any pain.” 其實係導佢好返,只不過當時係台下既Babydoll收到呢個信息 (OMG,睇返原來個鏡頭係Dr. Vera Gorski 講呢段野時,Sweet Pea突然望向Babydoll,focus轉返去Babydoll度,意味主角其實係Sweet Pea,但Zack要引返觀者落Babydoll度睇佢之後點打!!!?? OMFG,睇埋落去,第一個幻想scene,排舞臺劇出現的時候,個focus又突然去返Sweet Pea(支針打落去一下),重要係講佢對抗Dr叫佢演little girl,佢要做返sexy, commercial(個層幻想的現實-妓院) Somehow 佢甘於留係呢個FF層..)
What do you think?
之但係Babydoll咁多戲只係玩觀眾既煙幕? 咁又太睇小左個劇本,睇睇下其實Babydoll都有條主線,就係自我的救贖! 係第一幕武士FF,Babydoll第一下聽唔到智者叫佢除鞋,再問宜家重使唔除,智者:”That time has passed.” 我覺得呢句意思就係叫佢”Just let go. Let your pain go. Let the hurt go. Let the guilt go.” 無錯! 就係Dr. Vera Gorski係舞臺教導Sweet Pea個d說話,係一次過踩曬兩條主線!! 神呵!
智者問Babydoll想要咩時,佢話”Get out of here”,但智者用”Freedom”呢個宇。而智者話第5件寶物 ”The fifth thing is a mystery. It is the reason. It is the goal. It will be a deep sacrifice and perfect victory … Only you can find it. And if you do, it will set you free”
我覺得對Babydoll黎講,Freedom就係可以彌補佢殺左佢個妹既錯,但如智者講”That time has passed”,一切已經發生,不可能改變,所以有點老套的以犧牲去完成救贖(我覺得未完..再所以下..)。
係妓院FF中講既”High Roller”,即係個surgeon,所以妓院FF中Dr. Vera Gorski堅持Babydoll係未ready,而院長Blue Jones就不停話Babydoll一定要做主角(因為佢收左Babydoll繼父既賄賂,目的就係要Babydoll做Lobotomy手術,從而唔俾佢有機會漏露佢既惡行)。而當個surgeon做完Lobotomy後,同Dr. Vera Gorski 講“Its like she wanted me want to do it”
所以我認為Babydoll犧牲自己最多只係relieve,根本談不上freedom,俾佢走到出去,佢都只會繼續內疚。佢選擇唔走,因為佢一入黎已經知道surgeon黎既目的,而佢最終都係決定以Lobotomy,做到真正的Let go。
最後的旁白都講得好白,大概就係相信自己,nothing is impossible,但就好似同個故事唔太關聯..
“The mystery of whose story it will be, of who draws the curtain. Who is it that chooses our steps in the dance? Who drives us mad, lashes us with whips and crowns us with victory when we survive the impossible? Who is it that does all these things? Who honors those we love with the very life we live? Who sends monsters to kill us and at the same time sings that we’ll never die? Who teaches us what’s real and how to laugh at lies? Who deicide why we live and what we’ll die to defend? Who chains us? And who holds the key that can set us free? It’s you. You have all the weapons you need, now fight”
無謂沒完沒了的猜測,之但係返睇又返睇後,覺得[Sucker Punch]真係神作,有音樂,有動作,有故事,有畫面(打 robot 個段玩 bullet time玩到癲左)。極之完整,各方面都出色,大家可以各取所需。致於點解叫 Sucker Punch,係 Wiki我比較鍾意以下,多於Zack既版本:
“If you want to understand Snyder’s central narrative gambit, it’s right there in the title. He gives us what we want (or what we think we want, or what he thinks we think we want): Absurdly fetishized women in teeny little skirts, gloriously repetitious fight sequences loaded with plot coupons, pseudo-feminist fantasies of escape and revenge. Then he yanks it all back and stabs us through the eyeball.” Andrew O’Hehir
