It's so audacious and so technically accomplished, and arrives here garlanded with so many radiant superlatives, that I wish I liked it more. Go to Full Review David Stratton At the Movies (Australia) Nov 12, 2014
4.5/5
The story is a compelling and deeply involving one, and the film is both beautiful, exciting, and sometimes horrifying. The creature effects are superbly handled. Go to Full Review Jaime Pena Caimán Cuadernos de Cine May 14, 2026
Such is the case that Pan's Labyrinth has already achieved the status of a contemporary classic, and there's no better way to evaluate it than with the perspective of these twenty years. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Rachel Bellwoar Vague Visages Mar 26, 2024

Cesar Sep 22, 2025 Great movie ! If you enjoy fantasy with some slight horror that makes you feel angry, sad and happiness This movie is for you. 😉 See more Teresa H Sep 18, 2025 Compelling story, good sound track and effective interweaving of real and imaginary worlds and characters. Story and visuals both very dark - the dark picture was welcome during several episodes of violence. The adults don't have much backstory, but since we are seeing most of this through the eyes of a child, that is appropriate. It was interesting that, although I don't really speak Spanish, by the end scenes I had stopped noticing the subtitles and was hearing the English in my mind as though it was spoken. Can't remember that ever happening before. See more Joseph D Sep 18, 2025 Absolute EPIC in every way. An adult fairytale that sweeps you away into another realm. Just an amazing film. So happy to see this again on the BIG screen!! See more Miguel Marquez Dec 14, 2024 I love this movie since the first time I watched it. It has a special place in my memory and in my heart. See more Len Sep 20, 2022 great storytelling and imagination. memorable movie and chilling creatures. finally saw it in theaters. See more Tom 20 min ago Great movie for all family members!
