Once in years masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (28 April 2012)

Pan's Labyrinth has been on my watch list for way too long I, today, watched it and I have to say: I was blown away.
Pan's Labyrinth manages to create the perfect Adult's fairytale. Guillermo Del Toro has managed to capture the essence of magic and imagination and corporate it with the innocence encrypted within children into the ambiance of a rather gory and animalistic "adult" world.
Ofelia, this book oriented imaginative kid manages to make this movie a sentimental journey, highlighting the sadistic and animalistic face of human's life. The labyrinth is her way out of the misery caused by human beings.
War and destruction corrupts people, one of the levels of the story. Cruelty can be lost in the labyrinth, it just has to get in first.
Absolutely Brilliant! 9/10
