Las sirenas

Nothing too deep, just an excellent piece of lightweight entertainment. Elements of romance, murder, adventure, a few funny moments. Three very different mermaid sisters, one tough and lives mostly underwater, another who lives permanently on land and is looking for her soulmate, the third one divides her time pretty evenly between land and sea and is just looking for some fun. Throw in the murder of their father, a couple of unscrupulous characters and a good looking male lead and you have an entertaining couple of hours of escapism. The end looks like a pilot for a TV series, I really hope it gets picked up. I watch very little television, but I'd watch this if it were a series.

I really liked this movie, I wasn't sure if I would at the beginning but I kept it on the channel and watched it all the way through. It's about 3 mermaid sisters, one of them lives on land, one visits from time to time, and one that hates the land. See these mermaids can get legs when they come ashore, but their fin reshows anytime they get wet. They all three also have special 'powers' so it's kind of like 'Charmed' but with mermaids. The one that hates the land comes ashore because their father has been killed by a fisherman and she wants revenge, but needs her sisters help. I would recommend watching it if you ever see it on and like that sort of thing. =)

"Mermaids" is an entertaining fantasy story that explores the interaction of human nature with that of intelligent nature(the mermaids). This was noteworthy to observe the mermaids wanting to explore the experience of being human, yet the mermaids set a better example of what being human should be. The mermaids were compassionate, loving, intelligent beings. Humans still have much to learn. The three main characters'(the mermaids)personalities contrast well being supported by each having a separate, unique talent. Such as, Venus being able to hypnotize men into doing what ever she wanted. The movie has a good storyline, and that's what makes for a good story.

Cute, some humor, some romance, pretty reasonable mythos, nice scenery. Could use some polish, but we all agreed that it was far better than we expected from the blurb. Looks like a pilot, hope it gets picked up.

I'll admit I didn't actually watch this movie from the beginning, I only caught the end. However, in that time, myself and my friend definitely noted at least 5 instances where this "film" could have shifted into one of those 1 am shows on Cinemax. Honestly the transition would have been seamless. Starting from the scene in the prison to the end of the movie with the delivery boy, sexual innuendo abounded. Add to that the cheesy dialogue, mediocre special effects, and paper-thin plot and you have the makings of a fairly good skin flick. Seriously all that was missing was some steamy scenes and a pizza guy.
