I too was hoping for much more in the actual labrynth itself and actually looked forward to some more escapism. What I got was a cold harsh dose of reality--the reality if war mostly. I wasn't "mentally prepared" for the gore and the saddness that stayed with me when I left the theater. On the same token, I'm glad it wasn't some Harry Potter tripe. There were some scenes in the film that made me want to jump up and cheer, while others were near tear inducing. I think a lot of movies lack that ability to stir emotions anymore. Still, some of the violent and gory scenes were a bit much for me as well. The acting was superb though and the film had me wondering afterwards just how much of it was all in the girl's head and how much was reality. Good stuff, though the ads are a bit misleading. I'll probably grab the dvd. Anyhow, great write up and artwork as always!stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08302940112403120398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20548059.post-3502707645399106462007-01-30T16:02:00.000-05:002007-01-30T16:02:00.000-05:00Hey, thanks for the heads-up.

The people, the ...I agree with your point of view.<br /> The people, the characters, the forest, the house, the story is too close to reality. It´s from reality.<br />The use of violence is excesive and can put you out of the movie.<br />Anyway,It was amazing for me too.illothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645068755813482280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20548059.post-10108358051144787512007-01-30T01:27:00.000-05:002007-01-30T01:27:00.000-05:00Huh, I've heard nothing but good things.

And both the reality and fantasy portions were harrowing and hard to watch. But it sure was amazing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
