I saw this when it came out at the cinema, it really is pretty fine, i loved the way it had such strong elements of complete fantasy and harsh reality in the same breath, very clever and gorgeous to look at, and as you said very like a real life Spirited Away, one of my favourite ever films.....

There's a superb 3 DVD set of Cronos, The Devil's Backbone and Pan's Labyrinth that I recommend to anyone!

My favourite is The Devil's Backbone, which is a counterpart to Pan's Labyrinth in many ways.

Also worth a look are Del Toro's Hollywood films, which he tends to alternate (for artistic as well as financial purposes, I suspect) with his more personal works. These include the superb Mimic, the boisterous Hellboy and the very underrated Blade 2.

Ooh, I saw that film a while ago with my roommate. We nearly died in the process of getting to the cinema, making it all the more fantastic, since it was a reward of sorts. Yeah, I loved it. Except for all the bloody violence...

Here, it's not coming out on DVD until May 15th.

Oh, I saw it just a few weeks ago!. It just seemed like summer... And it seemed like a long time ago. Perception=reality? :-)

I was hoping it worked on a "cheese before bedtime" level for those who hadn't seen the film, Pandora. :-)

Oh! Now it makes sense. I thought the last Tranny and TV was inspired by cheese before bedtime!

Good as I've been told it is, I might give Pan's Labyrinth a miss as the whole Franco/Civil War stuff is a bit dark for my current metal state.

I seem to recall Cronos was good, if a bit odd though.

I enjoyed the film, and thought that it was good, but felt that it was a little bit over-hyped after scooping an armful of Bafta's.

Get down to HMV and pick up a copy of Cronos, today: I've seen it there for about £5.

I saw this movie late last summer, and I loved it, too!

Not only a visual feast, but an excellent fairy tale, as well. It's really quite astonishing.

I know I'll be grabbing the DVD when it comes out here.
