Deserves every ounce of praise it gets

Sci-Fi fan, into movies that tell a great story

Pros

Fact/Fiction Mix, Entrancing storyline, Wonderful fantasy movie

Cons

Violence may be too extreme

NOV

2007

This is one of the best movie's i've ever seen, period. It should be mentioned that this is an ADULT fairy-tale, made for those mature enough to handle some of the graphic violence that occurs. This isn't an unnecessary element simply added to push it to an extreme, however. It is crucial to the story of how a young girl escapes into a fantasy world to avoid the brutal world she is in.

One of the most enjoyable aspects to this movie is trying to figure out whether or not the fantasy world is real or imagined. It'll have you going back and forth on this up until the last second.

Without any specifics, i have to say that this had perhaps the most perfect ending to one of the most phenomenal movies ever.
