Phenomenal

Rating: 10/10 (8 March 2007)

I saw Pan's for the second time tonight. I just can't really come up with the correct adjective to describe the way I feel after watching it again, it's just a very special movie. Unique. While I really liked it at my first viewing, I fell in love with it the second.
I know as far as a movie experience, what I really loved; the lighting, the atmosphere, the fairy tale, the acting, etc. But the experience of seeing it touched me deeper than that, something about it just connected. Can't explain. It's one of those movies that I will store away for a long time. Its one of those movies, either you get it or you don't.
I highly recommend to anyone who is contemplating seeing it, to see it on the big screen, with a good sound system, while it is still out in theaters. The sound effects (those squishy bugs crawling around, the boots creaking as the captain walked), and just the dark magic of the forests looming on the screen so largely, cannot be fully appreciated unless you immerse yourself in the experience.
