Denzel Washington is great and the plane crash sequence is really good, but this script is full really wierd scenes of... I'm gonna say "religious mystery"?

One involving the copilot's family and other involving a random cancer patient that, apparently some people think is God?

Those scenes are just so wierd that it feels like a completely different movie.

The rest of the movie is pretty boring, but never outright bad, just really underwhelming. It's a perfectly ok movie that I'm glad I watched if only for Denzel's acting.

I do really like the climax though.

We are all just spectators in the Nicolas Cage show...

You know that episode of Community where Abed goes insane from watching too many Nic Cage movies? Yeah, I though the same was gonna happen to me while watching this.

This was terrible and I wouldn't want it any other way.

Watching this movie was one of the best film experiences I've had in a while. This film is incredible.

It's a profound and emotional experience the likes of which I haven't had sice maybe Neon Genesis Evangelion (the infamous pie scene is comparable to Evangelion's elevator scene. You know the one).

Such a great, depressing, existensial crisis of a movie. I loved it.

Just like Pan's Labyrith was Guillermo del Toro's Alice in Wonderland, The Shape of Water is his Beauty and the Beast.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind seeing other stories be told through del Toro's eyes.
I'm still waiting for his take on Goldilocks and the Three Bears, set during World War II.
