That is a terrible review Matious-civil war bull****? Del toro the director grew up in Spain living in the aftermath of the franco regime, and maybe this is his way of dealing with difficulties in his childhood or Spanish culture in general.
This was never intended as a childrens movie, it's an Imaginary world a child might inhabit growing up in these circumstances.
The violence in the film was what was going on in this time and to just gloss over it would be considered dishonest by DEL TORO.
By all means you don't have to like the film, but your review lacked intelligence.
