         "Sensational Movie Wizadry

         The Shape of Water takes on a journey of intrigue and fascination. Sally Hawkings, Octavia Spencer and Michael Shannon deliver great performances

            The story and plot unravel in the Del Toro fashion with words and cinematography working in unison. There are some scenes of adult sexual nature that were excessive and not needed.

         The climatic end was fitting for the film

            Good: Story and characters were believable
            Bad:  A little too slow paced for my taste.
           Ugly: Some gruesome scenes not needed
