I rented this movie on Friday and still haven't watched it. Either something has alway come up in the evening or I haven't felt really well. So I don't get too many late charges I need to be sure to watch it tonight!!

I watched with friends and there wasnt one dry eye in the room.

Mexican directors kicked ass last year with Babel, Children of Men and This movie, not sure if Del Toro is Mexican or not(he has produced alot of his movies in Spain), but am glad Mexicans are taking their productions seriously again. Be sure to check out the devil's back bone, similar in style as it is a period piece.

I enjoy films with a historical backdrop and this one did a fantastic job weaving fantasy with the gravitas of the Spanish civil war. I'm not very into the fantasy genre, but I enjoyed "Pan" greatly. I was surprised that it didn't win the best foreign film at the Oscars, with all the critical acclaim it received.

Yes, Del Toro is Mexican.

Typical of the academy! The 3 amigos rocked the oscars and they gave the awards to stupid shit like the Departed, an idea stolen from Hong Kong cinema to begin with. There was a theme at the Oscars and it was give credit where its due but screw the best non the less. Babel was robbed (yes, am bitter about that one)!

movie was pretty wicked at IMAX, got a chance to watch it there...

it was very intense in the theater.

We already saw children of men, now i am just waiting on a good chance to watch Babel. I have had it for a while, we just haven't had a chance to sit down and enjoy the movie.

you guys seen "El crimen del padre Amaro"?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0313196/

Its another film from another Mexican director. The movie is very similar to Amores Perro's and Y tu mama tambien.

Its directed by Carlos Carrera, I think he will be the forth member of the 3 amigos sooner on later....

Dude! El Crimen del Padre Amaro is fucking awesome. Its like watching the Talented Mr Ripley, a likeable character who turns out to be a total sadistic sick fuck. Love it! Y Tu Mama Tambien, watch the uncut version cuz if you watch the American version you are not gonna get the punch line of the movie.

Yea it was very good! Damn I wish i saw it on IMAX that would been sick! It had very good graphics and awesome storyline, definitely not for kids though.

Posted by KarenLuvs2Party on May-24-2007 19:04:

yes it was an awesome movie! I went to CINESPACE and they did dinner & and a movie.. and that was the movie!

I don't get this movie. Really, I don't. Can someone explain to me the actual relevance of the historical backdrop other than to serve as a role for an unwanted, harsh environment to escape from? It didn't seem to influence the fantasies, even though the fantasies somewhat affected the realities in the movie.
