  It’s an utterly lovely, complacent movie. Dreamy.

  Devil's Backbone, Pan's Labyrinth and now this are his best. Nice throwback here. His exhibit at the AGO is also really good, especially the Rain Room.

  There's no sense trying to analyze how he does it. Just dive into the experience. There's magic in it.

  “The Shape of Water” is partly a code-scrambled fairy tale, partly a genetically modified monster movie, and altogether wonderful. Guillermo del Toro, the writer and director, is a passionate genre geek. Sometimes his enthusiasm can get the better of his discipline, producing misshapen (but never completely uninteresting) movies like “Pacific Rim” and “Crimson Peak.” At his best, though — in “The Devil’s Backbone,” “Pan’s Labyrinth” and now, at last, again — he fuses a fan’s ardor with a romantic sensibility that is startling in its sincerity. He draws on old movies, comic books, mythic archetypes and his own restless visual imagination to create movies that seem less made than discovered, as if he had plucked them from the cultural ether and given them color, voice and form.

  5 NNNNN's in now, 4.5 in the Star, 7 GG noms, 2 Sag noms, 14 Critic's choice noms but some omelette here has nothing better to do than post 50 one star reviews - like anyone believes the movie is one star!!! Get a grip.

  "Please waste your money" - loser reviewer/overposter. The movie is not one star, it's actually excellent.

  You have no wife. You're the same loser that keeps posting the one star reviews, for your own twisted reason. Too much time on your hands.
