Spoiler:
It didn't bother me that Capt Vidal didn't see the Faun. The Faun was magical (assuming it was real), so he wouldn't have seen it anyway. I liked the "ambiguity" of the story, but prefer to think of it as different perceptions of reality rather than ambiguity. I imagine that the fantasy part of the movie was very real to Ofelia, and the "real" part was true for Mercedes et al.

As far as renaming the movie for Pan, I'm pretty sure that del Toro made that decision - he's fluent in English - though I'm not sure why.
