Pan's Labyrinth (2006)

Poster for Pan's Labyrinth (2006)
3.5 / 5

This was such an odd movie, but I’m so here for it. I wish they made  sequel to explore the world more.

Initially I was hard in the camp that Ofelia was simply coping and none of it was real. The Capitan not seeing the Faun seemingly confirmed it, but why is it not possible for the faun to have vanished when he noticed him coming. We’ve seen him do it before. Idk I’m choosing to believe.

Also, the Pale Man scene was really interesting with the fairies pointing to the wrong door. What would’ve happened? Also, so many shoes imply that countless came and died due to eating food?  I doubt that. So maybe it’s something with choosing the wrong door. This left me with so many questions and I’m already halfway through the companion book, which adds so much depth!!!
