Barbie und das Geheimnis von Oceana 2

In this new adventure, Merliah enjoys her life as a surfer on the waves of Australia, while enjoying the seabed as a mermaid. Until a fiercely competitive rival threatens Ocean's safety by unleashing the evil Eris. Merliah will need the help of her friends and the mermaid ambassadors to try to save the ocean and win the surfing competition. Will she make it? Merliah, the surf girl and enchanting mermaid princess, gets her ticket to success in the ultimate surfing tournament, however, when her magical necklace is stolen, Aquellia is in danger.

Cute, like every Barbie movie, super colorful, that always unnecessary female rivalry, but with a cute message at the end, of sisterhood, respect, and healthy competition... Cute... Cute...

Ahh, I love this sequel so much! It's has such great plot & truly ties in with the first Mermaid Tale!

Okay okay, I wanna start by saying that, it's WAY more entertaining than the first one, no annoying characters, good rival story, the only thing that keeps me from thinking that this movie is amazing, is that nothing much happens in the first half, but after that, the story gets a really good plot. And I think the movie is great, just not amazing. I still really recommend if you've already watched the first and haven't seen this one.

Fell short of expectations. This movie follows Merliah's journey as a half mermaid half human princess, however, it doesn't even really follow her journey. It more so follows Kylie's poor decisions and her lack of sportsmanship. It is nice to see her evolve in the film, however no one cares! She was not interesting, and she was quite particularly an ass. The whole movie sucked and just went on and on and on and on, and it lacked purpose. A sequel was not necessary to the first film, and i hardly consider this film it's "successor". It lacks substance, diversity, etc. It doesn't evolve the formula of the first, and just sticks too closely to it's roots. The first film had me on the brisk of excitement. This one had me on the brisk of falling asleep.

The story is great and I love the new character's development. It may not be as great as the older Barbie movie classics, but it still one I'd watch over again.
