I watched Gunpowder Milkshake. It's worth the time. It's super stylized in the vein of 300 and Sin City.
The bad: If you don't like stylized stuff it won't work. It's hit or miss for me but this worked.
If you don't like girlpower shit don't bother. This is done well enough that I'm fine with it. it didn't take me out of it. There is a lot of "No way a girl can hit a dude hard enough to do that damage" stuff, but it's stylized enough that it's already not taking itself too seriously.
The Good: The action sequences, especially when they go hog and choreograph it to music is really well done.
Karen Gillan is really good. Disclaimer: I think she's super underrated so that may cloud my perception here but her and Lena Heady especially are really, really good.
It does a lot of the same stuff movies like Sucker Punch do, but for whatever reason worked for me in this one.
It sets out to do something, it isn't just CGI action porn.
It's long, but I wanted more when it was over.
It's worth the time IMO.
