Pan's Labyrinth

1. What are 3 things that can make this movie be considered an ART movie?
This can be considered an art movie because it isn't a movie that was highly publicized and it doesn't follow the norms of Hollywood movies. It is creative and open ended it doesn't tell you if she actually dies at the end or if she was just dreaming of the throne room. The movie has a unnatural plot, it's not a plot that is made up for a certain genre of people (teens, adults etc.) it is a plot that is allowed to be interpreted in different ways by each individual.



2. How is this movie perhaps more creative than most mainstream movies?
It is more creative than most movies because it doesn't follow a familiar plot line that is predictable like most mainstream movies. It allows the viewer to make it their own movie, to make it a movie that they understand in their own way.



3. Did you like or dislike this movie overall? Please fully explain your opinion.
I actually really liked the movie overall. When the movie was first mentioned I had my doubts but overall it was really interesting. I liked the characters and the way they were designed. I liked that it was something that wasn't predictable because I have been getting really sick of watching movies where you know the end as soon as you hear the first line.
