Summary: A Hi-Def Masterpiece!
Comment: Firstly, if you have not seen this film, go and rent it from your local video store.
If you have seen this movie, you will know that to see it on Blu-ray is a must.
The detail is what makes these sorts of films so amazing, and detail is shown like no other in this film. The story has the hint of 'Little Red Riding Hood' but is much darker and not for children.
This is Del Toro's masterpiece and I am very excited to hear that he is writing 'The Hobbit'.
This is a must have for any blu-ray collector!

Summary: A movie for those who don't like fantasy movies
Comment: I love that this movie combined historical fiction with fantasy. It's definitely a movie for people who don't like fantasy movies. My sister HATES fantasy movies like harry potter and lord of the rings, but by the time she watched half of 'pan's labyrinth', she said 'wow, this movie is great!'. I myself have watched it three times this week alone!
Even though the movie is in Spanish, you don't get bogged down by subtitles. It's easy to follow, and you could probably understand what's going on without even reading the subtitles most of the time.
It's an excellent movie - give it a try!

Summary: Depth
Comment: Not all people will get this film. It requires person to see the meaning behind the pictures & one should pay close attention that what happens and when. Especially the end of this movie is misunderstood by many.
Give it time, space & Your attention.

Summary: Del Toro's Best Film So Far!
Comment: This is a wonderful film that includes magic, mysticism, and terror of a war. A girl whose mother marries a Spanish fascist tries to cope with her stepfather's brutal personality, a servant's assistance to the resistance and her mother's poor health. The magic helps project a world that is much safer and comforting than the real world. A very moving movie and I just love it. The extended DVD provides much more than the film and the extras are good.

Summary: Enter the Labyrinth
Comment: "Pan's Labyrinth" is a masterfully executed fairy tale in the old-fashioned tradition: dark and atmospheric, full of stunning imagery, both beautiful and terrifying. With this film, Guillermo del Toro has proved himself a master not only of the visual elements of filmmaking, but also of credible storytelling. The way that certain thematic elements were developed throughout the movie was fascinating, and the film's ultimate emotional resonance is undeniable. One of the most brilliant things about this movie is that the line between the grotesque and fantastic world of the labyrinth and the stark, brutal world of post-Civil War Spain is deliberately blurred. This ambiguity is what ultimately gives the narrative its urgency and the film its deep sense of mystery.
The violence in this film disturbed me quite a bit; on the one hand the depiction of such brutality makes sense in the context of the story, yet I can't help but feel that it was gratuitous at times. I also think that the black-and-white delineation of fascists=bad and socialists=good fails to do justice to the moral and political complexity of the Spanish Civil War. On the whole, though, "Pan's Labyrinth" is a beautifully realized work of great imagination, and definitely worth your time.
