Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

The Shape of Water is one of the cult-classic which combines a blend of classic and modern cultures. This is why Oscar love the movie apart from the premise which I guess seems simple, predictable, and ridiculous as I always see on the local television as romance crappy story. Guillermo Del Toro shows a simple blend of it with the fantasy technique that he always used in all his movies. The visual is one of the gorgeous pieces that ever existed, Sally Hawkins is incredible while doing a sign language, a mute princess. The set-up and production design are flawlessly underwhelmed when the film gets a lot of reputation at Oscar and the world. Some social issues may be fairly simple in this film but it can be used as a reference. But, this is a fairy tale that mixes adult components. In a nutshell, it's just a human being had sex with fish.

In general, IMDb's ratings are pretty accurate due to its algorithms based on large amount of user input. However this one is very under rated due to fewer user input. Instead, the rating should consider the Critic's score in movies like this.Unlike Hollywood big commercial products, this movie's main focus is Art and Romance. In here, STORY is the key. A calming blue atmosphere sets the tone, slow paced but beautifully executed movement leads the plot, 60s time setting brings back vintage feel when America was great where certain character was main stream, psychological details deepens the emotions, open ending provides enough room for imagination and joy, logic chain is clear and strong. There's none unnecessary stuff in this movie, everything is just the right amount, like cooking. like art.I have not seen such a great movie for a long time. It is not the "Forrest Gump" type of movie, but it deserves every single bit of OSCAR.

I never write review on IMDb, but because of this film I have to do it.First of all, I totally don't understand why this film won the Oscar. I have never seen a more cliché and overrated movie in my life. Don't waist time and watch Three Billboards Outside Ebbing.

This Oscar winning movie does a great job at depicting what looked like a crazy or impossible plot with wonderful scenery, special effects and a more than mediocre performance by its actors. The story is compelling and it makes you root for its characters as if you knew them in person and besides it's cliches and predictability, it never lets you down. In the end this is an intreaguing and fun movie although it dosnt stand out from the crowd and it dosnt leave you thinking about it for days and weeks, but it still does a good job at making an impossibly fictional premise into a plausible, calm and down to earth film.
