  Absolute cinema. It has almost everything we've come to expect with a Del Toro production - great cinematography, immaculate production design, artistic direction, and really solid performances all around. I say almost everything because I did find the score too be a bit underwhelming and was hoping for some more memorable tracks. Still, this film is such a treat all around.

  Bradley Cooper is really, really good in this movie. He plays the lead with a dark past that is…
