  The shape of water is a perfect blend of sci-fi and romance so elegant that even in an unforgiving society the universal power of love still flows through. This film is so perfect that both can be beautiful and neither has to be beastly in the pedestal of love.

  I was avoiding this movie for the negative reviews..... but when I saw this movie won some oscars I went to watch this film and it was excellent. There was any not porn in the movie.

  This was an interesting movie with lots of great visuals, but the story seemed a bit all over the place and there were parts that just seemed out of place or unneeded. For instance the sex scene with the agent and his wife. What was the purpose of that? Just for the gag that his fingers were starting to rot? Or the masturbation scenes. Was this to prove that this woman was horny enough even to screw a fish man? Also the side story of the gay friend and the racist homophobic dude at the diner. Was that there to provide authenticity to the era the movie takes place in or just to give that character something to do? It was good, but not best picture good for sure.

  The sexual stuff was self-serving and probably meant to be shocking and therefore "artistic". The story would work without it and it would not be disgusting propaganda of zoophilia. It turned a movie with some potential into absolute garbage. The Oscars are officially a joke now.

  Totally a complete garbage. I cannot believe anyone would give this movie 5 stars. I wanted to walk out after 30 minutes, but kept holding on, hoping it would get better. Complete rubbish. Save your money and PLEASE do not waste your precious time with this.

  I really liked the portrayal of the dark, almost surreal world that Eliza lives and works in. Her attraction to the creature---slow at first but then growing in intensity--intrigued me and seemed plausible. Some of the violence was a little gratuitous (i.e. Dimitri's demise, which was very bloody) and as a cat lover, I was disturbed by the creature killing and eating the cat in the apartment, although I can understand why the creature did it.

  This was an enchanting movie that had a great storyline. The plot was simple with some interesting twists and there is plenty of action for keeping your attention without senseless violence. Potentially one of the best movies I have seen in the past few years - perhaps second only to Hidden Figures!

  One of the best movies of all time ! Last time I saw a good original movies like this was Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris" 17 years ago !! Hollywood need more movies like this ,they have lost their way on remakes ,hope writers and producers take notice that you can still be creative and a commercial success at the same time !! If the movie didn't have the sexual connotations and scenes ,would definitely been a Family Golden Era Hollywood classic ! But this will definitely become a Cult Classic for sure !!

  I loved the first half, and it was beautifully directed throughout (with exceptional production design) with a man intangible fairy-tale feeling but I could have definitely done without the overtly romantic relationship. You could have removed the sex scenes, kept everything else the same, and it wouldn't have lost any of its specialness.

  Del Toro really drives the notion of: if you ever felt you were from another time and place, but having to live with the reality of this is where I am right now. The period the movie's set in matches the mood of the story - grim with a bit of hope. Shannon's instant karma is somewhat funny and tragic. I feel sorry for him...almost. Great acting by all! Beautiful set design and the amphibian man's costume is flawless.
