An overheated steampunk fantasia of girls in go-go outfits wreaking vengeance with ninja swords and machine guns, "Sucker Punch" is a bowl full of hot-mess filmmaking. I'm all for crazy, off-kilter movies packed to the hilt with the fertile imagination of its creators. But this latest from "300" director Zack Snyder (who co-wrote the script with Steve Shibuya) is a greenhouse of cinematic references crammed together, sprinkled with steroid fertilizer and with heat cranked up to sweltering jungle temperature.
