This movie is a work of art. That ending.. Just.. Poetic. Del Toro is a visionary director, and the shape of water for sure deserves all the praise. one of the most pure and innocent love stories. Also, the entire cast is AMAZING. Every emotion at the right note. A tale for the heart. Beautiful. Beautiful.
This is a beautiful story, exquisitely performed! If you are not able to suspend disbelief and see truth in fantasy, I grieve for you, because you miss out on gems like this film. This story deals with loneliness, kindness, friendship, love, courage and nobility. As well as ambition, prejudice, corruption of power, cruelty and powerlessness. Guillermo del Toro wove a sensitive and beautiful story set in a sterile and cruel world. The performances are wonderful by a talented and accomplished cast. The production design brilliantly captures the romantic tension of the piece. I highly recommend this film and give it a 9 (superbly beautiful) out of 10. [Fantasy, Drama, Romance]
In a word, _magical_. The Shape of Water is a beautiful and superbly crafted film with excellent writing, direction, art direction, cinematography, acting, and music. It's arguably del Toro's best work and easily my favorite film of 2017. **This is why I go to the movies!**
Would be a 10, but THAT scene with the cat... what the f man.
Incredible acting and a beautiful love story that really touched me.
I loved it a lot more than I expected to. A fantastic love story
I always try and watch the “Best Picture” movie to see what all the fuss is about, but normally it’s not to my taste. I really enjoyed this film and the unconventional love story told throughout it’s course. I was never bored and there is some fantastic acting in this.
