Boy meets mermaid... mermaid gets captured by scientists.. they threaten to dissect mermaid..
...boy and goofy friend rescue mermaid... mermaid released into the ocean narrowly escaping re-capture... boy goes into the ocean with her and learns how to breathe underwater... they live happily ever after...
Now that's the plot for Splash..
change boy to girl and mermaid to merman and you have The Shape of Water.
Such a shame when people can't come up with original ideas anymore.
Otherwise.. good cast.. well acted.. good makeup and effects.. watchable..
Daryl Hannah did it better though.
