Pan's Labyrinth - a Good Movie to See


This evening I've seen Pan's Labyrinth, a Spanish language film with English subtitle. From the very moment of its beginning, Pan's Labyrinth takes the viewer into its fantastical maze of dark reality and enchanting magical world, moving in and out of them with effortless ease while depicting a violent world of Franco's fascist Spain in 1944. The writer-director Del-Toro has woven this beautifully crafted movie, frame by frame, minute by minute, where the senseless war, its brutality, the very real victims, their pains and agonies, are so stunningly detail and artistically presented that for many viewer Pan's Labyrinth will surely remain to be an affecting force.

This is indeed one of the best movies I've seen in many years!

Read Roger Ebert's equally exquisite review of this movie from the following link: http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20061228/REVIEWS/61228001/1023
