Set inside the dreary, CG-heightened 1950s, Sucker Punch is all about a new female protagonist named Babydoll (Emily Browning, who replaced Amanda Seyfried inside the role) who retreats in to a fantasy world to flee the hard truth: that in mere days, her evil stepdad will have her lobotomized.

Based on the trailer, Babydoll's "real" world can be a dark and gloomy mental hospital in Brattleboro, Vermont, where a Polish-accented Carla Gugino tells her in voice-over that she will escape into her fantasy planet. "What you're imagining right now," she purrs, "that location is often as actual as any pain."

With Gugino's encouragement, Babydoll plans to escape -- and she requires her hot fellow mentally insane patients (Abbie Cornish, Jamie Chung, Jena Malone, Vanessa Hudgens) together with her into...

... a fantasy globe the location where the girls, interrupted are now living in a brothel as glamorous burlesque performers. You'd believe would not be so bad, however they apparently must leave this fabulous brothel spot to complete numerous action movie tasks, built with big guns, B-52 bombers, fighting styles ...
... abilities, samurai swords, and knives as sharp as their skirts are short. By means of some tasked challenges, the band of deadly young ladies will ostensibly earn some sort of "freedom" -- and now we the crowd is going to be around the receiving end of some cinematic sucker punch we never saw coming.

Somewhere in all this awesomeness, you will have musical numbers. Elaborate, glitzy, cabaret-style musical numbers serving up song and dance alongside all that motion and killing. Stylized trench warfare and burlesque -- two excellent tastes that taste great together?

Let's take a closer look on the characters of Sucker Punch, as dreamily (or nightmarishly?) conceptualized by photographer Clay Enos in the first batch of character posters. Each individual piece depicts a different Sucker Punch lady and, presumably, her respective signature outfit and weapons of choice -- along with the specific setting that could prove substantial for her in the film.

Emily Browning as Babydoll is really a schoolgirl vision in blonde pigtails plus a sassy stare who wields a pistol in one hand and a samurai sword within the other. Snow falls around her as she stands before a pagoda, suggesting her large challenge will come fighting the massive samurais we view inside the trailer.

Abbie Cornish's Sweetpea evokes medieval maiden having an edge -- a pantless, armored dragon slayer shown with a castle without anyone's knowledge.

Amber, played by Jamie Chung, appears to be a WWII-era fly gal who likes lollipops, wears chaps, maybe flies a B-52 bomber and fights with a enormous robot. A robot with a bunny face.

Vanessa Hudgens as Blondie isn't blonde. She does, nevertheless, wear a slick, slightly more updated outfit that somewhat resembles a ninja cowgirl. And also the gun. She's a big, huge gun. One thing here's clear: Hudgens says such a long time to her Senior high school Musical days.

Jena Malone's Rocket is harder to read, but she does hold a knife at her side, which promises stabby motion. Also, fishnets. Her scene occurs with an alien planet having a helicopter.
