pan's labyrinth
Kai:
Saw it today after great leagues of effort (which failed) to get a girl to go see it with me.
Deh. Nowhere near the level of quality as this thread would have you believe, personally.

Still being half a smartass? I can't tell.
They should come up with a punctuation point for those using sarcasm/irony and it should be highly sarcastic ironic.
I know it's always good work, though, to take threads rull serious, so I guess I'll stop being a tard either way.

being the fairy tale fanatic i am, i absolutely LOVED this movie. the faun looked amazing. the ambiguity of the story was played off very well. even though it was quite graphic at points, it lets the viewer understand just how awful those people were. i will definitely be buying this.
and this isn't really a spoiler, but the thing with the eyes in the hands FREAKED ME OUT. ugh. they really matched his appearence with what he was.
Peter Harris:
This movie was pretty good. I have to say it blew me away. I didn't think that the winter season was going to offer anything better than The Prestige, but I was wrong. It offered TWO movies that were better, and one of them was Pan's Labyrinth.
The other one, which I actually thought was far superior to Pan's Labyrinth, was The Children of Men. One of my favorite Michael Caine performances to date, solid performances by Clive Owen, Julainne Moore and Chiwitel Ejiofor (one of my new favorite performers), and a great premise. Amazing use of special effects to get the little details down instead of big special flashy effects, and some of the most amazing sets I have seen in any movie. (There is a seven minute shot following the characters through the bombed out streets of the future. No cuts, no computers - they built the whole goddamn city.) And personally, I thought it was a better film than Pan's Labyrinth.

The thing with the eyes in its hands. It was like something out of a Silent Hill game or movie. I didn't really understand why the fairies wanted her to open the middle box though. Was that relevant?
How was the FX done on this movie? Was it just all makeup or some CGI... or what, because it looked amazing.

I'd say that the fairies told her to open the middle box as a test. If she was the real princess, she'd know that it was the left one.
