3/5

It's so audacious and so technically accomplished, and arrives here garlanded with so many radiant superlatives, that I wish I liked it more.

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.

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]

A few of the tales are a bit of a stretch, but the scope of the Pan's Labyrinth universe comes out feeling much larger than ever before.

This movie was fabulous, but definitely not for kids. Don’t assume because it’s fantasy that it’s appropriate for children. There are very scary situations and lots of violence!

I just saw one of my favorite movies of all-time in 3D. It was definitely worth it. This movie is obviously a masterpiece and to be able to see it in this new way was very exciting and satisfying. Beautiful messages from this film that will always hold up. Loved the new remastering job done as well. The best it's ever been.
