Pan's Labyrinth (2006)


Date watched: May 15

Review: A beautiful movie. The actors seemed good enough. It is harder to tell when the movie is in a completely different language though(Spanish). What really made the movie was the fantasy elements. The other part of the story was important, and good, but it is something that has been done before. The fantasy added a whole new view. A movie really shines when the viewer pulls for a certain character to survive, and there are plenty of times when cringing and tensing of the muscles occur because of the fate of the characters. Only seeing two foreign films unofficially, this one is the best of the two. Film making that is actually worthy of the name "art."

Rating: 8.7/10.0
