A Pequena Sereia

This movie relied more on facial expressions that dialogue or actual acting talent. It was pretty, but not much of a story either. The 3 kids I took said, the most boring movie I ever saw." So that sums it up.

So many ignorant people here who don't realise that Disney did not create The Little Mermaid. In actual fact, it's a fairy tale written in 1835 by Hans Christian Andersen. Whilst I agree that this movie has some very bad acting and is a bit slow paced, it's a good story, fairly close to the original story and overall I enjoyed it

So so boring and pointless. Horrible acting, script and plot. One of the worst movies I've watched in my life.

As an adult, I expected more. I knew this wasn't like the original story but the title little mermaid isn't right. They should have called it something else like the curse of the mermaid.. I do believe kids will like te movie and thats why I gave it 5 stars.

So there are a ton of reviews trashing this movie because they're coming from adults who (like me) grew up with Disney's Little Mermaid and have been waiting for the "real people" version of that movie to come out. But this movie is not meant to be a remake of Disney's Little Mermaid, it's meant to be a twist on that story. (I also think it's kind of hysterical the people saying the fight scenes were boring and didn't look real; it's the effin Little Mermaid, if you were looking for decent action scenes, you're an idiot.) Don't have expectations when you watch this movie; I'm not saying that in the sense you'll be disappointed, I'm saying that because this isn't Disney, and it's not "the" remake we've been waiting for; that'll come out eventually. This a children's movie based loosely off of the original, and I actually think it's good. It's not necessarily a movie I would watch again, but not because it sucked, just because it's a little too calm for me. And I think that's exactly what's good about it. This is exactly the type of movie I would put on while babysitting. It's sweet, it's clean, the love between Cam and Elle is inspiring, and the fighting scenes aren't intense at all.

@EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THE MOVIE: Well done, truly. You somehow got the green light to produce a movie in the 21st Century without violence, without sex, without hidden innuendos (as EVERY kid's movie has nowadays). Try not to let the haters bother you. Darkness will always try to choke out the light.
