Must See

Rating: 10/10 (1 January 2007)

I usually do not like movies in general, but as a history buff my uncle who is a director knows del Toro showed me this movie in a whim that I might like it.I had been studding Spanish for over five years now, and found I did not even look at the subtitles by the end of the film because the dialogue is easy to understand and the cinematography was done so well. del Toro also does a good job at blending fiction with reality, and mixing what occurred in history with what happened in Ofelia's life. This movie renewed my interest in movies, and I look forward to going back and watch del Toro's other films. I would recommend it to anyone.
