I've never been fully able to align my thinking that way as there is a great amount of empathy to be given the creature. As this film pulls a lot of obvious inspiration from The Creature From The Black Lagoon and more specifically its sequel Revenge of the Creature , we're given a being that, by all constipated terminology, would be classified as a monster, but it's also given a true heart in the form of Sally Hawkins' Elisa. Both are beings out of place and time with the world around them making their connection unexpected but welcome and relatable.
While Elisa does have friends who care about her, she doesn't experience true love and respect until the Amphibian Man rises out of the water and the pair shares a hard boiled egg together. It's pretty wild to see where del Toro decided to take the material considering the marketplace and the undoubted pressure to make the film a more marketable PG While there is a lovable sense of whimsy to the film the characters' respective journies - it is decidedly not a kid-friendly feature, and all the better for it.
I would be remiss to discuss The Shape of Water in too much detail as there are a number of plot points and important themes at play I would rather not color anyone's expectations further. Michael Shannon's Strickland is a particularly tough character to discuss without A: spoiling key events and B: coloring the film with any personal biases.
The film has already been saddled with the weight of being 'Best Picture of the Year,' the film doesn't need my takeaways to burden it further. That they lived happily ever after? I believe they did. That they were in love? That they remained in love? I'm sure that's true. But when I think of her - of Elisa - the only thing that comes to mind is a poem, whispered by someone in love, hundreds of years ago: "Unable to perceive the shape of You, I find You all around me.

Her kindred cleaner Zelda is maneuvered into the plan, similar to Elisa's delightful more seasoned neighbor Giles, another forlorn heart who looks for a man with whom to share his only man presence. In any case, what would they be able to do against Strickland, the observation frameworks and the military monitors that keep a nearby watch on the office day and night?
There's an energizing spine chiller viewpoint to The Shape of Water. However chief Guillermo del Toro never dismisses its heart either, nor its dream components. The whole generation, from the lovely and hypnotizing opening scene to the last edge, is stunningly gathered, a level of easy creation that is excessively uncommon in motion pictures.
The exhibitions are additionally delightful, with each character instilled with an intriguing eccentricity or two, from Strickland's dependence on hard confections to Zelda's constant squabbling with her do-nothing spouse to Giles and his artistic manifestations portraying the prototypical and admired American atomic family from his forlorn single man cushion.
