I've loved this movie since I was a kid (although it is definitely NOT for kids). Guillermo del Toro has knack for telling a story packed with emotion, combined with enchanting and strange visuals. The visual effects of this film are…

Pan's Labyrinth was wonderful. How could I love this bloody film so much? It was so dark. There was so much death. It was in 1944 after Gen. Franco took over Spain and they killed the partisans. But the moral of the story was, the…

It has been several years since I watched this one -- all I remember at this point is how much I disliked it! I'm probably an outlier -- most reviews are very positive. But I thought the movie was overrated & tiresome.

GREAT FILM! This was my probably my first introduction to Del Toro's films. This film has this beautiful combination of a fable tales and real life events at the same time. I really enjoyed the film.

An absolute masterpiece! This is a must-watch if you are a fan of cohesive storytelling and brilliant creature design - I became a staunch Guillermo del Toro fan after watching this. Set during the Spanish Civil War, the young main…

No one beats Guillermo DelToro for creativity! I love this movie and am also loving the illustrated book that was recently released. Don't let the subtitles get you down, give it a shot.

This is the reason I love "Hellboy". Del Toro (the Mignola comics are amazing as well). Finally, a story that explains the survival value of fairy tales...and, no, it's not even for teenagers.

This is my favorite movie. It's beautiful, heartbreaking, terrifying, thought provoking, and riveting all at the same time. Many scenes are permanently burned into my mind from when I first saw it in the theaters.

I love Guillermo del Toro's films. This is a beautiful piece of art that emphasizes strong female characters contrasting with really dark antagonists. Watch the extras on how the designs were imagined!!
5/5 stars. Pan’s Labyrinth is a 2006 Mexican/Spanish dark fantasy film that was directed by legendary Guillermo Del Toro. It tells the story of a little girl named Ophelia who moves to Spain in 1944 with her mother, who recently married a…

Downright spooky and rather sad at times, but for the most part, a very moving film. Definitely not for everyone, but definitely for people who appreciate an artistic movie.

This film is a work of art. Yes, I know how pretentious that sounds, but this is the truth. You can pause any moment and it could be framed. Del Toro is master at engrossing the audience in beautiful, haunting imagery and effects. The…

My take on this is it's a little girl's way to cope with the war in her land of make-believe. One thing to note is this is NOT a kids movie as there are a couple of gruesome moments.

In both of the realms of either fantasy, as well as reality, Pan's Labyrinth certainly managed to excel and deliver some of the finest story-telling that I've had the pleasure of experiencing in a mighty long time.
Believe me, this was…

I'm giving it 1 star because... I'm not 100% certain but... Is there no english option? Couldn't watch because I don't speak Spanish. Does it say on the cover that it isn't in English?

One of the best films of the 21st century, and it would surely hold its own on an all time list as well. A very dark and adult story of man's inhumanity to man wrapped in the clothing of a gothic fairy tale. Unforgettable.
