I am sure "Pan" is not for everyone... (bit of a spoiler)

...but I take the juxtaposition of the brutally "real" against the robust fantasy of the "imaginary parts" to be a major part of the film's substance. There are times, though, when the real starts to verge into fantasy and vice-versa, as when the villain Vidal sews his own face back together, making a Batman Joker face in the process. I find amazing the way it plays the fantastic against the real while really not staking a claim in the end at all for what's real and what's fantasy. But it's true, you have to have a stomach for the grotesque to be able to take it. My near-17-year-old daughter thought it was amazing but my wife won't go near it.
