This movie is not your typical fantasy flix.
Pan's Labyrinth as I mentioned in the previous blog is in Spanish with subtitles and was described as a fairy tale for adults - even some adults may not be comfortable watching this.
The story was sound and the cinematography was very well done but there were a few disturbing scenes. The story revolves around a young girl, Ofelia, who with her recently re-married (widowed) mother join her new step-father at a post-Spanish Civil War outpost bent on wiping out a resistance movement. Ofelia is led by a faerie to a labyrinth where her destiny begins and things start to get both strange and terrifying both from the beings of the labyrinth and her step-father's behavior and efforts to eradicate the rebels.
If you like you movies on the strange side check this one out.
Both Carol and I liked it and it keeps you thinking about it for awhile. If you'd like more story line details go to the
Wikipedia entry.
