Review of The Shape of Water (2017) by Brendan N — 11 Feb 2018
Del Toro bounces back after what others would call a weak film, Crimson Peak, I enjoyed that film. This film plays out like The Creature from the Black Lagoon but is much more beautiful and a labour of love by the director.
The film balances a horror film but also a mystery and love that is not commonly shared in this day and age. I'm shocked Del Toro has never made a film at Universal as he has the scope and ambition to remake the Wolfman or Frankenstein something unique.
I hope this wins big as it deserves all the focus it is receiving by audiences and critics. 08-02-2018.
