The Shape of Water



We finally saw The Shape of Water. I had wanted to probably see it at some point anyway, but since it's won some awards, that provided the little extra push. I enjoyed the cinematographic style, the characters were interesting and well cast, the special effects were good. Yes, you have to suspend disbelief and it is weird, but that should go without saying for a Guillermo del Toro film. It was like watching a European film, but without accents or subtitles, and the setting was Baltimore. I recommend seeing it if you're in the mood for something a bit artsy or foreign, a little bit funny, a little bit dramatic,, and a tiny bit suspenseful.
