A Must See Movie - If you don't mind sub-titles,
This review is from: Cronos (10th Anniversary Special Edition) (DVD)
This movie is a little bit of a weird twist on the vampire movies. No there are no pretty boys glowing in the sunlight with glitter....sorry. If you liked "Let The Right One in" then I would think you would like this one too...worth the money.

Del Toro rendition of Love Story,
By M&M "books goes to movies" (Vancouver BC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cronos (10th Anniversary Special Edition) (DVD)
this movie was absolutely brilliant!one thing you have to keep in mind, in the end, this movie is essentially a love story, but since Del Toro is directing it, it has it's Macabre side. one thing more to keep in mind: the 1st half of this movie is somewhat slow, and is primarily used for setting the stage for the 2nd half of the movie, so if you are the type of person who watches a movie and if there's no real suspense or action in the first 15 minutes, you need to wait, apart from that, the rest of the movie is Very good, i loved it, one thing you should know, the movie is ONLY in SPANISH, with english subtitles, there is NO other language for for the movie other than spanish, but if you read on with the subtitles, you'll love it. this movie is acctually beutifully put together, an early masterpeice for del Toro. my rating for this movie is a 5/5 personally, but it is not for everyone... so read the back cover before buying it, if you rent it, talk to the clerk and ask if they've seen it, but most people would find this movie fasinating. Also in the core of the plot there is something that now is in investigation, live/technological interphases are quite new, so perhaps a good vision mind on del Toro side. Good movie, will see it again.

A Horror Masterpiece,
By
This review is from: Cronos (10th Anniversary Special Edition) (DVD)
Once in a while you come across a movie that you view because of curiosity or maybe because there isn't anything better available at that time. It is quite a wondrous feeling when you find that contrary to your low expectation, what you are viewing is one of the best films of its genre ever made. This vampire horror film is not only atypical of the genre, it is simply much too profound to simply categorize into any kind of genre.There is so much to this film it is difficult to know where to begin. A beautifully made film, it has a very intriguing story line that has an emotional, moral, and spiritual complexity that you rarely find in any film, let alone a horror film. The fact that the film is in Spanish (with sub-titles) does nothing to take away from the enjoyment of the film, in fact, if anything it adds to its exotic flavour. Written and directed by Guillermo del Toro, this film in my opinion is a masterpiece of the genre. I am very grateful I had the opportunity to see this film. It was a real pleasure.
