Como arruinar um bom conceito

“O Labirinto do Fauno de Guillermo Del Toro é um filme dark fantasy de 2006 que conta a história de uma menina chamada Ofélia que tem uma certa imaginação para histórias de fantasia e que está destinada a ser rainha de algum reino mágico seguindo a linha narrativa fantástica, que recebe um tom gótico e dark devido ao cenário em que se desenvolve a história, no pós guerra civil espanhola onde fascistas e comunistas disputam o poder em um cenário de incertezas seguida pela segunda guerra mundial com uma lore fantástica de fundo onde Ofélia está destinada por uma profecia a se tornar rainha. Bom, o conceito é interessantíssimo porque dá margem a uma exploração temática genial sobre escapismo, tocando temas como a individualidade, imortalidade, tanatofobia, desesperança,” read more

“Warning: Spoilers

Much has been said/written about the underlying tones in this picture. The fascist regime on the one hand, the dream(?) world on the other hand. Del Toro leaves it up to you, so everyone can decide what they make of it ...

That also can be said about the fantasy world. Does it really exist or is it all in the imagination of Ofelia? I only watched the movie once, so I'm not quite sure what to make of it ... but my first guess would be that it all was a dream or an escape reality Ofelia had. I'm sure some psychologist would/could use that to analyse me ... ;o) But that doesn't matter after all, you have a really good fairy tale for adults here. Some might find it a little bit too offensive or too bloody. One thing is for sure, it's not for children.

""I saw it when I was in college. I had seen the trailer and the only thing I knew about it was. It's in Spanish. It had a faun in it." Pan's Labyrinth "Part of the reason I enjoy this movie so much was because I had no idea, going in, what it was about. I just knew it looked cool and it was in Spanish and there was a faun in it. For one thing, all the character work really well. Even the potentially cliched villain as a probably realistic depiction of a really ruthless ranking officer during F"

" Notes: Since it was a huge critical success, I was really dying to watch this flick. Eventually, I had 2 issues with this movie. First, it was very overhyped when I watched it the first time so my expectations were too high. Second, I was expecting a fantasy picture and the fantasy is only half of the movie, the other half being a war drama. Basically, I didn't get what I expected. In spite of all this, I really liked it as there was some very good directing and a fascinating story. Some years"
