| I thought this was going to be a "Labyrinth" kind of movie, that is for kids... but how wrong was I >.<
This film is utterly awesome. I love foreign films anyway, but the acting was superb (especially the little girl), the script was brilliant, the special effects are breathtaking, and I would seriously recommend this film to anyone!
I love Guillermo Del Torro anyways (I already have Kronos and Devil's Backbone on dvd), and know how dark some of his stuff can be, but I was completely blown away by this one.
The guy with no eyes, except the ones in his palms was AWFUL! Seeing first the picture of him eating children, then sitting so still at the table, I was almost shouting at the screen for the girl to get out of the room!
There is nothing to disappoint in this film, it is a rollercoaster ride of emotions though. I would give this 9/10, probably one of the highest scores I would ever give a movie ;P
