Anyone see Pan's Labyrinth?

Me & the GF just saw this picture last night and I can't decide if the girl in it was experiencing fantasy or real 'magic'. There were a couple of scenes that made me think it was 'real' magic, but of course, I think it was 'directed' that way.
Anyone else see it and have opinions? I'd be really interested to see what others who have seen it think.

I think it was her fantasy. What child wouldn't drift off into a different realm, when reality is that bum? The fantasies also come up at times you'd expect a child to day drift (as she's falling asleep, during the day when no one is around, etc).
If you're looking for 'evidence', recall the shot of her bedroom (when rebels came to rescue her), the chalk door was drawn on the right side of her bed (while in the fantasy, it was on left, and disappeared after being shut).

I still can't believe she caved and ate that grape.. little brat.
