Wonderful, if you are capable of wonder.

Rating: 10/10 (24 November 2018)

I loved this movie. Just enough worldbuilding, full characters, visually stunning. Sure, it's a story we've seen before, but not this way. Guillermo Del Toro mixes the mundane with the fantastical like no one else. Even the music alone is worth the watch. I feel sorry for the people rating this movie so low because they think it's saccharine or simple. Turning your back on beauty to make a hot take on the internet is pathetic. How one becomes so inured they cannot tolerate wonder is a mystery. And a shame.
