The director is very good at this kind of dark fairy tale from the perspective of children in the context of war. The division of human hearts in extreme environments is...

It's not just a horror movie, it's more about humanity, growth and love in the context of war. Compared with "Pan's Labyrinth", Gilmour's this one has more revolutionary romantic feelings, simple and profound. The bomb standing in the middle of the yard seems to suggest the specter of the conflict and war that brews in the hearts of people. I like the color of those poems and...

Ghosts are just one element, what really captures is human nature. All kinds of characters are very distinct, and it is a very advanced ghost film. Most of the horror and suspense films in the Spanish language are good, and the narrative capture is often...

It is indeed more like the prelude to the water test of [Pan's Labyrinth], and the warmth in the helplessness is also reminiscent of [The Lonely Castle]. However, the whole story is full of vulgar plots and straightforward symbols, and the Spanish Civil War, which could have been deeply explored, has basically been reduced to a background board. The design of the ghost child is relatively novel and unique. | Some things are dead but still alive, like a blurry picture, like insects trapped in...

Compared with the popular "Pan God Labyrinth", I prefer this ghost story of Guillermo del Toro. The weird and blurred dream world and the real world of war background are intertwined with the entanglement of human nature. Full of color, and jointly compose this psychedelic poem with sad emotions. Among them, the image of the ghost boy is unforgettable, weird and gorgeous, which is...

⒈As far as my love for the work is concerned, I feel that Director Toro is going to be at the bottom of the "Mexico Three", but the base bear who prefers thriller and horror movies may like him more, and the inspirational sister of the young literary girl likes Gonzal. Leis, I like Caron the most for the time being; ⒉No wonder that the villain is a bit familiar. It turned out to be the male protagonist of "Flaming Coins"; ⒊The sleepiness struck, I wanted to take a nap and watch the movie, but I...

Like Guillermo del Toro's later "Pan's Labyrinth", which made him famous, it is based on the background of World War II. Through ghostly descriptions, it reflects the cruelty of the war, and the characters are very delicately...

Although the script is not exciting and compact enough, the plot of four orphans with sticks and a ghost boy over the villain at the end finally completes the drama structure, and finally makes the audience no longer complain that the ghost boy who appears suddenly is just a poor gimmick. The details and images are brilliant: unexploded bombs standing in the square, pictures of the wicked in childhood, and the chants of the old doctor. These are all telling you: Actually, the devil is not...

In the chaotic era hidden in the background, endless greed and previous evils, goodness cannot stop evil, then we have one last resort. The childhood sunk by hatred and the childhood stained with blood are in this closed orphanage, and the victims of the world have avenged their...
