Review

The Shape Of Water is pure magic, poetry in motion with such an entrancing music that works as the perfect companion to the story.

Visually the movie is stunning, there’s an easy flow in the storytelling that keeps you enthralled the whole time and is full of wonderful and spellbinding moments with great acting.

An amazing work from Guillermo del Toro, a movie I can’t recommend enough and that will definitely be part of my Movie Collection.

Rating: 5 of 5.
