El Laberinto del Fauno, a.k.a. Pan's Labyrinth

[Nanobyte]

Has anyone seen or heard of it? From what I gather, it's been in select theatres for a few days, but it's slated for a nationwide release in a few weeks. To be honest, there isn't much I know about the movie, just what little I saw from the trailer. It looks to be interesting though.

Here's the official site, its IMDb page, and its wiki page.

edit: Ah well, that's the link anyways. I don't know why the URL tag isn't working.

From what I've heard from the people who've seen it, it's an excellent one, and everyone I've talked with about it who hasn't seen it seems excited to. Give us a quick review or some such when you see it.

As for your URL link, I think maybe you need to remove the space between the = and the actual URL?

Looks pretty cool. It has an "R" rated though. Is it scary?

I want to see it, but there is no where near me showing it
If someone has seen it can they post a review?

Tried that. I think I've had trouble linking to particular wiki pages on these forums before, so it may just be that.

I don't think so. I've heard there are a few graphic moments that may have landed it that rating.

Like I've said, there should be a wider release in a few weeks. Hopefully, that doesn't mean select theatres.

There was some violent/disturbing imagery which probably resulted in the R rating. Interesting movie although the trailer misleadingly portrays the movie as overly fantastic when in reality the content of the trailer is nearly the sum of the fantasy sequences involved.

<font color=skyblue>Its listed now as Wide Release, but I still cannot find it anywhere near me. (insert vulgar explicitive). It is #7 on the charts of recent top box office sellers, and both critics and the average viewer give it an "A" and "Must Go" rating. Yet I cannot find it anywhere!!??!! (More vulgarity shown here)</font>

Wide, in this sense, must mean outside NY and CA. There are only two places near where I live that are showing it, with the closest being a 30 to 45 minute drive from where my dad lives. I'm not sure what all plays into that, but it seems pretty typical with the release of a foreign film.
