Barbie et le secret des sirènes

I have made no secret of liking the Barbie movies, they are not perfect and none of among my favourite movies, but they are cute and have a sense of fun. A Mermaid Tale is no exception. The animation is really lovely, beautiful colours and gorgeous underwater sequences, and the music is catchy. The dialogue has its corny parts but is generally sweet and has its heart in the right place, the story is on the clichéd and rushed side but again it means well and is charmingly told and the characters while not much different from characters in other Barbie movies are still likable, especially Merliah's cute little friends. The voice work is still going strong, with Kelly Sheridan continuing to grow and very engaging throughout. All in all, not one of my favourite Barbie movies, but very nice all the same. 7/10 Bethany Cox

Merliah, the young queen of the fast waves of Malibu, thinks she is an ordinary teenager; however, after an unexpected incident during the surfing tournament, she discovers her true identity: she is a graceful mermaid. Now, with her new best friends - the happy bubblegum pink dolphin, Zuma, and the beautiful mermaids, Kayla and Xylie - they embark on an underwater adventure to save the ocean kingdom of Oceana and Merliah's mother, Calissa. The girls must find three magical items.

Very cute, this one had been left behind when I marathoned all the Disney movies, this one probably wasn't on the list, colorful, beautiful graphics, although very well written, full of magic and adventure, a few little songs (thank goodness), cute script, with educational messages of love, friendship, hope and kindness, like all its predecessors and successors, it is impossible not to be enchanted...

I think this movie was well made. It's got a fun adventure aspect and some nice characters. It tells a great story with a great lesson. It is very silly as most Barbie movie are. Is it as good as other Barbie movies? No. But it's definitely worth it.

Barbie is a child of two worlds who returns to her underwater home to fight with an evil family member - it's literally Aquaman solo movie.

I like the story on how merliah summer found out her real identity and save the ocean
