I didn't know I would love this

Rating: 7/10 (29 December 2018)

I just this movie a couple days ago. My bf insisted me to watched saying how he liked Pan's Labyrinth a lot. At first, I was skeptic toward to watch it because I thought it would be some kind of cliche fantasy movie. But I was totally wrong. Guillermo de Toro delivered a very beautiful yet tragic story. I said it is not cliche because first it is a dark fantasy with bloody scenes (I thought the movie was a happy-journey thing). And I love when the character is faced with danger there is not a suddenly-hero-come from nowhere to help him/ her. Mercedes is the character I favorite most. She is strong, brave and smart. I felt like clapping when she brutally attack the captain. Besides, I hate the main character most, Ofelia. Though it is still understandable because she is still a kid and innocent (or stupid? why do you eat the grape?!). Oh and the myth creatures are astonishing!
To sum up, this movie worth to watch. This is not a usual fantasy. This is rare.
