Unique and enjoyable

Rating: Null/10 (22 January 2018)

The Shape of Water is definitely unlike any film I've seen this year.
It is unique yet set in an older time which adds to its mystery and intrigue. A lonely mute cleaner forms an unusual bond with a different creature with unique abilities. Throughout the film we see the two grow closer and face obstacles from a ruthless agent.
The film excels in being unique and pushing the boundaries of what is possible. There are also some unnecessary scenes showing her normal morning routine. Her neighbours character could have been developed as could Octavia Spencer's character.
Still an enjoyable experience at the movies. 7/10
