The movie has great set pieces and atmospheric feeling to it, the kind of things that you can expect from a Del Toro's movie. However it is unnecessarily long and the pacing is too slow, by the end the movie never amounts to anything. Sure it's a great exploration of self destruction, addiction and madness, its just that it doesn't do much despite its bloated runtime and it did not leave an impression on me.
