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 so boring and pointless. Horrible acting, script and plot. One of the worst movies I've watched in my life.
This is a Perfect Movie for a Dad to take his young Daughter to see or rent. I read many of the negative reviews for this movie, But I think some people are missing the point... This is a young kids movie. As far as acting goes, for a Kid's Movie, it was not that bad. The little girl that watched it with me loved it! It was also good to see Shirley MacLaine's cameo. Rent it for the kids. Enough Said!
I felt that the story was good, it was an interesting perspective on the little mermaid, however there's masses of room for improvement. There were a few half-decent actors but the acting was pretty bad overall. The score/music was very basic and repetitive, the editing wasn't great - the film didn't really flow properly - and the script included many cringe-worthy lines. It's what you'd expect from a low-budget film like this one, but if this was done better I think it could have been a really good movie.
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.
