dark, violent and beautiful... but I did think it would be more about a maze..

Rating: 9/10 (19 February 2007)

When i first saw the trailer for Pans Labyrinth I immediately wanted to see it because I love films that are about mazes and the challenges within them. However, when I went to see the film I was slightly disappointed by the fact that the film was hardly about a labyrinth at all but more about the war and the violence within it. I did think that the movie was very beautiful and the acting was amazing, especially by the young girl. Overall I enjoyed the movie immensely even though it wasn't what I expected. If you want to see a film that is both dark and beautiful, strange and amazing then I would recommend you to definitely see it. But be wary if you scare easily... this film did give me nightmares.
