What's also strange is it's stylistically beautiful (par for the course with del Toro) one moment then as you say it has garbage CGI.
Odd movie
Greetings. I arrived on Planet Earth from Planet Zambodia 333 years ago to rule Bongoland, as Prince of the Mongos -

Yes, that was my main issue. What I call the "video game treatment". Totally out of place here. And he managed to make certain set designs look both cheap and expensive.
. He even hammered home with the bluntest of objects one of the points of the film, just in case the audience is too stupid to recognise who the real monster was.
But I did enjoy it though. I'm only pointíng these things out because good it is, but film of the year? Well then you're not watching enough movies (not YOU you, the general form of "you"(. -

but what about a positive benefit from HollywoodAI? i would love to see AI and all its variants and capabilities bring to life the long, long dead from Hollywood. one example: Orson wells left behind tons of partially written/unfinished screenplays and story boards. why is it wrong for AI to examine the works, ingest the writing styles, ferment the ideas, and then birth "original" works by Wells? to synthesize brand new projects?
same for resurrecting and reanimating actors: let AI create them anew and have Bogart, and Cary grant come alive again on the screen! -

I wouldn’t say the big screen, but it would be cool to have a virtual reality or holograms where you can place yourself in those movies with those actors.

I suspect that once AI leads to mass unemployment and worldwide water shortages, movies of any kind will be the least of our concerns.
Regardless of that, I have no interest in seeing AI ****. Bogart and Grant were both in 70+ movies and, notably, Grant willingly retired from the film industry two decades before his passing. If he'd wanted to give his fans more, he had twenty years to do it and chose not to. I think we should respect his wishes.

Which ones did you like (if any?)
I usually like his stuff but absolutely hated The Shape of Water. I haven't seen Pinocchio, or the sequel to Pacific Rim, so I have a little catch-up to do. I thought Nightmare Alley was a bit "meh", but I also wasn't really in the mood for it at the time, so my opinion might differ on that one if I rewatch it.
Pan's Labyrinth is my fav of his, followed by The Devil's Backbone. -

Oh god I quit SoA after 2 episodes.
I thought Katey Sagal and Drea de Matteo carried what I saw, but I just don't give a **** about biker gangs. And then there was Ron Perlman's face to deal with.
This was before I saw Hand of God, and he was great in that (as was Garret Dillahunt….bit of an underrated actor imo) so I think maybe I can handle Ron Perlman now.
(Hey, everyone has actors who have faces they have difficulty with, and it's not a reflection on the actor's talent, it's just that you gotta be in the mood for their faces, amd a series is a longer time commitment than a movie).
Still don't give a **** about biker gangs though, so it's still going to take a bit of convincing to get me to watch SoA. -

Katey Sagal was great, but her character got sort of old by the end of the series. And Drea de Matteo is amazing, but was used pretty sporadically.
I won't even try to convince you to watch it
It's pulp action **** and got really bad by the end. And you would probably really hate the third season where the whole gang travels to "Belfast" and the accents were all over the place.
