Okay. I know I'm coming really late to the party on this one, but Pan's Labyrinth is superb. It's not for children and there's some extremely graphic violence, but it's a fantastic movie. I'm giving it 4 loogies up.
Damn! Has it already been a year? We never made it into the theater to see it, but we really should have picked it up on DVD by now. Thanks for the reminder, Phlegm.
dba dude - well you've made me a fan of Kermode, and I'm flattered to be in such good company. Can't wait until I have time to listen to that clip (hopefully this evening)
I saw it and had a difficult time with it, I think because I wasn't expecting it to be so gory and depressing. I was really expecting an adult-like happy fairy tale. I probably need to see it again to see if I like it better (the three people I went with loved it).

Yuppers. Check it out, honey.
Stunning film from a great director.
You are in very good company Phlegmmy, Doctor Kermode made this his top film of 2006, in this clip he interviews del Toro.

I've heard really great things about it and I even have the dvd, but the kids are always around so I've never been able to watch it. One day.
Can't argue with you - that is one fantastic film. Very dark.
I'm just DYIN' to see that, and almost baught the DVD one or two times. I guess I should bite the bullet and go ahead and get it.
I must remember to get this one and watch it with my daughter.
Thanks for the reminder.
the ending made me so angry I wanted to throw something at the television.
was that the whole point?
I loved it!
I must agree with you...it is an incredible film.
indeed it is
