I wasn't sure what to say about this movie. Using words like boring, flat would be too harsh. It has few strong sides like sets, scenography, editing. But it's predictable, and bit flat. I think it's right choice for fans of Guillermo del Toro. Here in Poland it had quite big promotion with articles in mainstream newspapers and magazines praising its as distributors sad it should be praised. For me it's nothing special and if you don't like this kind of cinema- just forget it. in few words it's Amelia by Guillermo del Toro with big half human - half lizard in center of the story.
