Pan's Labyrinth

I really loved Pan's Labyrinth. It was a great movie. I mean... well, I walked out of it thinking, "I cannot think of anything that I disliked about that film." And that is true.

The film has a wonderful parallel between a fairy tale world and harsh reality. It captures human emotion. It is visually wonderful. It has great pacing and a wonderful balance of time between different parts of the movie. It is rich in all ways. And in the end it gives a lot of room for reflexion. It is sad and philosophical. I can keep stating these facts of the movie, but it just remains that it is wonderful and must be seen. This is one of the best movies of 2006, but will probably just be tossed in the "Foreign Language" category of the Oscars. Psh.
