Just perfect...
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
This movie makes me feel heart-breaking so much!!! I'm in pain right now! Classic!
I have become a big fan of Guillermo del Toro ever since watching Pan's Labyrinth and Shape of Water. Where Guillermo lacks plot-line, he makes up for in style and cinematic beauty. I dont think the story line of Pan's Labyrinth is fantastic per say, it definitely felt very loosely written, and I did not expect the film to be so heavily based around the war and so little on the actual labyrinth. But regardless, Guillermo's cinematic style is absolutely astounding. The fantastic creatures, the art, and the mood in each scene captivates how magical Ophelia's fantasy world was. I will forever love Guillermo's 40's-50's vibe in his films
Probably the darkest fairy tale ever; it's an antithesis between a fantasy world and the harsh and unmerciful reality. The atrocities during the Francoist Spain are dominating the real world. The fantasy world is also dark and full of foes. Before the movie ends, an immediate question comes in the viewer's mind: Is it really a fantasy world or just a child's imagination? Sergi López's performence is top notch; cold, extremely cruel and brutal, unsympathetic, disgusting, sadistic and almost lacking emotions; yeah, my favorite character in the movie is evil! Ivana Baquero must be mentioned too; a pretty good performance for her age. Beware, this is not a typical fairy tale!
No words can describe how much I love this movie. This movie has the most visually stunning effects and cinematography I have ever seen, especially the story. this movie is the best fantasy movie I have seen along with Harry Potter and Lord of the rings. This movie is perfect in everyway. But NOT FOR KIDS! This movie has very graphic violence, It is surly rated R for a reason... Listen to the rating! 10/10
