Mermaids

I am an elderly man (who still likes cute romantic movies).My only complaint with "Mermaids 2003" is that it has NOT come out on DVD yet so that I can purchase a copy for my 9 yr old gr-dau who also likes mermaid movies. I would approve and promote this this movie to any parent. Its perfect for FAMILY viewing and entertainment. And I agree with a previous comment that it is too bad that this movie never made it to a series production, which only proves a lot of GARBAGE is acceptable over good family themes. OKEY, thats my soapbox of the day, except that I would truly enjoy a sequel!!!

If the movie "Memaids 2003" is going to be released on DVD, how can I be placed on a mailing list or notified of its availability? I really would like a copy because for anyone looking for good, clean, and very enjoyable entertainment to watch with their children, THIS IS IT!!!

While fishing offshore, the ambitious fisherman Mallick (Sean Taylor) uses explosives and a machine gun and kills the father of three gorgeous mermaid sisters. Diana (Erika Heynatz), the oldest and strongest one, lived with her father and has a powerful trident weapon which becomes a type of hair clip and decides to look for her sisters to chase the killer. June (Sarah Laine) lives in a boat, has a magic mirror, works at the local aquarium and has a crush on the Coast Guard officer Randy (Daniel Frederiksen). Venus (Nikita Ager) has the power of seducing men, has a magic tiara and works as an aquatic dancer in a coastal bar. Together, the three sisters try to find a way to bring justice to the death of their father. 'Mermaids' is one of those movies quite silly, but delightful to be seen. The story, full of magic and fantasy, is delicious. The gorgeous cast is a collyrium for the men eyes. The locations are wonderful. 'Mermaids' is a great entertainment for the whole family. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): 'As Sereias' ('The Mermaids')

I had the opportunity to watch this movie one night on PAX tv. It is about three mermaid sisters who are looking for revenge on the fisherman who murdered their father. One of the sisters lives on land, the other comes up every now and then for a "good time" and the third has never set foot on the ground before and hates all human beings. This provides some extra conflict when deciding what to do about the fisherman, which I have to admit really helped the story along. There are several subplots of sibling rivalry, romance, etc. some of which probably could have been left out. The special effects really were not bad for a low budge-made for tv movie. They also explore a lot of old mermaid lore, which was pretty interesting. All in all it really wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. If you liked the movie "Splash" I would give this one a chance. Who knows; you might get HOOKED. LOL

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 loved it! It was family friendly. Romance but not sex. I loved how it was about sister's (women) who each had their own ability to bring to the table to help avenge their father. Very positive for girls. The costumes were great! Very hip but very sea-like. Kudos to the designer! The acting was very well done. Even though there were unknowns in the lead roles they were very good actors. Special effects were well done. Scenes were nice. Location was very well thought out. Script was good but hey when they begin the series I know it will get better with time. The concept was great. It did look like a pilot. Me and my family are still waiting for the rest of the series. We need more programing like this!
