According to The Hollywood Reporter, The Way of Water is a big movie, monumental even, that deserves its three hours of screen time and its mammoth financial investment.
According to The Atlantic, the movie is a salvation to hungry moviegoers and praised its decadence, writing, "For cinemas that have been starved of authentic spectacle, finally, here's a gorgeous three-course meal of it."
Variety praised the movie for its technical feats, but disagreed, noting that the characters are almost completely blank in appearance. It's all in the pictures.
The Way of Water is apioneering film that brings something to the screen that has never been seen before, according to Deadline.
I still haven't wrapped my head around the fact that none of this stuff actually exists.
The film was graded an A- by Entertainment Weekly, which said it was a sensory overload of sound and color that felt spiritual.
Critics weren't happy. The Guardian said that the undersea world was like a trillion dollar screensaver. There is a high-tech visual superstructure. The bland plot is similar to a children's story without the humor, a YA story without the emotional wound, and an action thriller without the hard edge of real excitement.
80%. That is the rating of the film, based on 81 reviews. Based on over 330 reviews, the first movie in the series has an audience rating of over 80%.
The first movie in the series was released in 2009, and has gone on to make more money than any other movie. The Way of Water is estimated to cost between $350 million and $400 million. The sequel needs to be the third or fourth highest-grossing film in history in order to break-even, according to the director. The movie was given the go-ahead to open in China last month, which could propel it to box office success. It is projected to have an opening weekend between $150 million and $170 million, putting it on par with other top openings of the year. The Way of Water was nominated for Best Motion Picture, Drama and Best Director.
The way of water is opening Friday.
China will allow the movie to be shown in theaters.
The lead nominations for the Golden Globes areAbbott Elementary and The Banshees of Inisherin.
