Has anyone seen this movie yet. It has great reviews. Pan's Labyrinth - Rotten Tomatoes
It was gruesome and very strange. I probably won’t watch it again.
Also, it’s subtitled.
It was a wonderful movie.
It is quite a good film, weird and slightly violent but still good, a more mature version of fairy tales. Having said that several people I know didn’t like it, I think because its only really set in 1 place (sorta).
P.S. its in Spanish
I saw it and really didn’t care for it at all. Like everyone said, it had qualities that you would expect from an R-rated fair tale, but I just thought it was generally boring. I thought the ONLY compelling character was the villain.
I watched it over the weekend…it wasn’t quite what I was expecting…kind of Alice In Wonderland on crack…but hey…if you like that sort of thing, go for it. Very violent, but I wasn’t sure if the director wanted to make a war movie or a fantasy/horror film.
Del Toro is usually pretty decent…but this one is not in my top ten…thats fer sure…like I said if you have a couple hours of your life to waste, then give it a watch…otherwise its a pass.
It could’ve been great, and I kept waiting for that awe inspiring moment, but it just didn’t do it for me. I expected a lot more of the fantasy world, and while I thought the ending was good, the depiction of said fantasy world seemed pretty lame to me.
