fixed run-on sentence. Not sure if the mini-essay on Mexican cinema attitudes needs to be there, so I left it up in case.


* AmericansHateTingle: If the reception of the film is already divisive in its native U.S., the reception outside America is even worse, being the most notable case Mexico, partly due to the fact being the home of Creator/GuillermoDelToro, the director of the previous two films, which for obvious reasons both him and his films are deeply revered there, and also because the film was defeated in box office by a local Mexican film, (''No Manches, Frida 2'') something that's rather unusual there. [[labelnote:Explanation]]With some very venerable exceptions, most Mexican films since the end of the golden era of Mexican cinema (1920s to 1960s) rarely were able to compete, much less lead, the local box office against either Hollywood or other foreign films, partly because of either lack of advertising or because most of these films past the 1960s were terrible shlockfests unable to even make an earning, and while the Mexican movie industry has managed to make some good movies in later part of the 1990s, most Mexican films were and are still unable to compete against foreign productions. The fact CulturalCringe is prevalent in Mexican culture doesn't help.[[/labelnote]]

** Baba Yaga. Who despite one scene is often noted as one of the best parts of the movie, thanks being equal parts repulsive and nightmare inducing.
