A Magical Treasure

Rating: 10/10 (20 May 2007)

As a lover of movies, particularly of the fantasy genre, Pan's Labyrinth sent me on a journey that I will not soon forget. Though people who are not familiar with the Spanish language may be turned off by the subtitles, you should not let that small fact ruin this experience for you. It does not take away from it one bit. In fact, it gives it a little something extra, in my opinion.
Not only are the special effects breath taking, but each actor delivers an amazing performance. Particularly that of Ivana Baquera, who has undoubtedly earned herself high status in Hollywood for her portrayal of the young Ofelia.
I cannot say too much more, for fear of spoiling a wonderful tale that all should experience for themselves, but I can say this: Watch Pan's Labyrinth. You will not regret it.
