It *is* true that the learning curve for Cython is steeper than that of ctypes. But for anything more complex than simple "call a function with no arguments", ctypes rapidly gets fairly complex and messy - and the docs are not exactly the best. At that point, investing the time in learning how to use Cython definitely pays off. Another option for the OP is cffi, which might offer a middle ground (in terms of complexity vs power - it's hard to objectively assess "complexity" without knowing the audience's background).
