Re: I saw this today and I liked it a lot better than my wife did at the time...

It's certainly not my intention to argue when it comes to personal preference. But the "problems" you cite did not bother me at all.

WARNING TO READERS: SPOILERS BELOW
For example, the key. I did not find it at all surprising that the rebels would want to use a key to ensure that the main object of their raid (to get supplies) was met. Why would they depend on an explosion when they are trying to get food, medicine, and such things that could be harmed by such an explosion? If I were a rebel, I would far prefer to have a key.
And I could go on...but bottom line, I bought it hook, line and sinker.
As far as the girl being a cipher...to me she was not, she was simply a normal young girl. A girl who was tempted by the taste of a grape. A girl who had a gut feeling that the sinister looking Pan did not have her brother's best interests in mind at the very end.
Now, in most movies, for example Babel, I could come up with a similar list of flaws that bothered me such as those you present for this movie. But no flaws bothered me when watching this. The husband is purely evil, but I thought that was quite intentional, nothing in this fantasy world was meant to be completely realistic. In my opinion.
