:laugh2: Did you think you picked up the wrong version or something?

Yes, it's in Spanish.

I thought it was a great movie.

Funny language aside, what'd you think of it?

I liked the movie as well.

It was one of those nice surprises.

Never heard of the movie but was bored on day and seen it on one of the movie channels.

It is odd and a little different but I was pleasantly surprised and pleased.

I rented that movie and made a big stink when I took it back. I stopped watching it when I could not turn off the sub-titles.

So you are saying it is SUPPOSED to be in Spanish.


Riiiiighhhhhhht !!


You almost got me. I am still looking for the Engrish version. :D

I can't imagine what you found "odd" about it.

I was disappointed by it. The back and forth of the movie really took everything out of the film for me. The "real" world aspects were much more interesting than the other stuff. Things would be interesting and then she'd go off to the other place and it was just dull.

I saw this movie at a hollywood premiere. Great movie, poorly advertised.

I think the only movie I liked more from that year was The Fountain.

You think?

I was interested in the whole movie.

The only part I thought was a little off was the Pan character. Although he was doing things to test her, even afterwards when it turns out what he says is true...he still came across as creepy and untrustworthy IMO.

I really wanted to like the Fountain, but I was left disappointed by it.

It wasn't bad, just didn't rise to my expectations.

It exceeded mine. It's just one of those movies that hits some people and not the others. Not because they don't get it or anything, just some like it and some don't.

Did you like Requiem for a Dream?

It's by far the best Aronofsky film, but that's not saying much. It was OK, which is miles and miles ahead of Pi (worst movie ever) and Requiem (one of the few movies I have ever turned off before it was over).

Everyone's a critic. Pi I thought was awful, but the latter two were terrific.

I haven't seen his other films.

I really like the idea of the movie and with that cast, I figured they couldn't go wrong.

But I felt like it only scratched the surface... could have been a lot deeper.

Uh, yeah it is, given that it's a Spanish movie. Overrated, by the way.

...walked into the movie without having any preconceived notions this would have been a pleasant surprise.

I didn't think this movie was a waste of time compared to others I have seen.

Maybe. I just didn't think it was that good. I loved the reality parts (the suppression of the Basques, etc...) I just didn't get anything out of the fantasy part.
