"When will the killing end" and "A moment of your love" really made my tears fall out, listening to the lyrics and how it relates to the film. I loved the film because it is so much like Romeo and Juliet. I just love tearjerkers. The scenery was really breathtaking. The only complaint I have is the part when Hagbard kills 2 men in Signe's bedroom. I couldn't help laughing. It is so corny how the sword goes right through in a matter of seconds with no blood oozing out and the victims' short fake cries. The overlapping of the lovers' faces at the end with "A moment of your love" was so dramatic. To me that was the best part of the movie. I kept pushing the << button on my DVD player. I enjoyed this movie so much more because I have the LP soundtrack,although I don't even have a record player. Every time the tree that appears on the cover of the LP soundtrack, it seemed like the most symboolic view because (that's where they kiss and the red mantle will hang at the end). Surprisingly there was a love scene; I was really shocked that Signe appeared topless and she stood around totally nude in the fighting scenes.

The visuals were beautiful. Having different mermaids other than the mermaid queen, made the movie exciting. They were au naturel too, not that I'm trying to be nasty, but that's how one would imagine mermaids to be in their natural habitats. Not wearing silly flower or clam shells. It is really the only real mermaid movie I've seen besides Splash. That movie was very disappointing because there were only couple seconds where she was really a mermaid. I don't know why they call it Aqua Sex, because it says "Mermaids of Tiburon" in the beginning, I have a color version but I cannot enjoy the movie because it has big white letters in the middle of the screen that it is not for public distribution.
