Title: Not for children or adults young at heart. For cynics.
Product review: I was disappointed in the movie. The hype, and trailers made it into a fantasy, comparable with Lord of the Rings. It does not remotely come close. The movie, is how the big bad captain, maltreats everyone in his family. He is also a terrible sadist, fighting the republican partisans still in the hills. This all happens years after the Civil war ended in Spain. The Captain is a caricature of a cold, brutal, sadist. Clearly, you see the bias of the film, if you pay attention. The big problem is that the depiction is one sided. The Republicans had terrible atrocities on their side as well. This is a war movie, war movie with a fantasy side story. This flick was bloody, humourless, biased and a real bummer with small sprinklings of fantasy. The acting was good, script was bad, and the plot was a failure. This movie is not for kids, or adults who are kids at heart.
