Deserved its Best Picture of 2017 Academy Award

Rating: 10/10 (13 March 2018)

From the moment this film started, I knew I was in for a treat.
Where to start with this one?
"The Shape of Water" is fantastical and breathtaking. The main character is a mute woman, yet she conveys so much emotion throughout the entire film. The cast is diverse, without suffering from stereotypes.
The soundtrack is phenomenal. I plan on buying the CD when I get the chance. The main theme is sooo good.
The set pieces, the visuals, the way some of the scenes are shot, the fishman himself. Everything is so beautiful.
The villain, played by Michael Shannon, is fantastic. A bit cheesy at times, but it just works.
I've only seen this film once and I'm dying to see it again. It won Best Picture of 2017 and it completely deserved it, even if it wasn't my top choice.
Guillermo del Toro created a masterpiece here, go watch it!
