i didn't want to make a call on its quality too early, but those trailers were already extremely worrisome. the del Toro movies weren't perfect but they were really good and creative and exceptionally directed. I like Harbour but Perlman is an impossible act to follow, and sticking in some anonymous for-hire director was never going to improve on the previous films.

it felt very made-by-committee, which is so off-brand for the character
i think the worst part was the soundtrack?? or the fact that it sounded like p much every 'british' lead character was very obviously not
