Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

daaniiellem I wish I could give this movie a -1. This has to be one of the worst movies I have ever watched. Does not make sense. At all. Cant believe I wasted my time watching it. I feel bad for whoever chooses this movie to watch thinking its going to be good, and finding out its complete garbage. Don't even bother watching.

gpsaxophone This is certainly not Disney's cartoon version for kids. Although there's no nudity, the titular character sleeps with a couple of men. She also gets a job at a strip club where the dancers only get down to their undergarments. The movie isn't about sex, but it is used to make points about people.Really, what this movie shows is despair and how different people react to challenges in their lives. It's an interesting take on a classic story but not worth either the polar opposite reviews I've read. The acting is OK to good but clearly not a high budget movie. It also isn't a disaster of a film and worth the 90 minutes I spent watching it.

Carol I wanna start with, this movie was far from perfect. Far. But this much negativity isn't warranted. Also, it says based off of the ORIGINAL story by Hans Christian Andersen. Not based off the cartoon version by Disney. I got from the movie what I got from the original fairy tale. The OG fairy tales were dark and some of them (including The Little Mermaid) had sexual parts. Was she a stripper in the original story? No. But the prince made her dance for him. So I can see the inspiration there. SPOILER ALERT He sleeps with another woman (and marries her) in the original story. And they end the exact same. If you have a problem with this ending then I suggest not reading the OG story and stick to your kid friendly cartoon.The acting by most of the actors was great I felt like. The main stripper girl and the guy at the beginning could've been better..... The sound was atrocious in some parts. Most of these people don't have many credits to their name (besides the sound guy surprisingly..............) so I think it was good all things considered. Would've rated a couple of stars lower had the negative reviews not been so drastically harsh.

cnycitylady Little Mermaid, and independent and not widely known interpretation of Hans Christian Andersen's classic and most beloved fairy tale "The Little Mermaid" is a powerful, faithful and tragic retelling of the story.Our heroine wishes to be human and sells her voice to the sea witch, classic right? But here they show us in vivid, intimate and hurtful detail just how big a part human interaction plays in this tragedy. Petty jealousies and misunderstandings unwittingly send the two lovers into a downward spiral that ends only in suffering. The Sea Witch plays a wicked part, too.This is a true fairy tale full of all of the love and heartbreak that turns a simple child's story into an epic of character, emotion and essence. 8/10
