Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

ThiefHott Too much of everything

Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Terryfan The Little Mermaid is a 1989 classic from Disney which still is consider one of their best motion pictures So it's interesting to know they would produce a TV series but what they did was smart of them is to make the series a prequel before the events of the movie it worked very good.Plus Jodi Benson reprise her role as Ariel, Kenneth Mars reprise his role as Triton and Samuel E.Wright reprise his role as Sebastian. Which is very good on their part to give the show a good chance. Despite the budget the series did have some good visuals and animation, I don't like judging animation because of their budget because there is some good animation here just got to be open mind about it Also we get original songs written for the show not in every episode but the ones who did get songs they each have their special to them The voice acting is pretty good as well with entertaining humor, intense, sadness and joy. The writing helps make the voice acting work so this is a good kid show and for fans of the Little MermaidIf you can find the show give it a try

heartlacey I love this show I remember being like 4 and my parents buying me the tapes I was little mermaid obsessed I think my favorite episode was with the creepy cave monster ha ha really all of the old school Disney cartoons with characters from the movies/well known characters were pretty amazing its too bad that the only way to see them is to go get a boxed set or stay up until 2am. The Disney channel lineup does nothing but repeat they should pull some of this stuff out for the regular line up no one needs to see the same episode of Phil of the future 3 times a day. Its too bad they don't make anything really good anymore the Disney golden age is definitely over both in movies and TV nowadays its constant reruns and Pixar...quality animation please.

R-S-W I watched this program quite a bit a few weeks back until they started playing repeats. I haven't seen them all but they are all very good. All I'm missing is the third season and the first episode which they unfortunately don't play down here yet. It seems just like shorter versions of the movie with different stories. It's very well done with most of the episodes with very original plots. There are some great new characters which is a pity that they weren't included in the movie. The series like the movie also features songs (although they aren't in every episode) which are very good and seem as if they are written by the same people. All the cast from the movie has returned to do the series except for Flounder but you would have never noticed if you hadn't read this. In the series you find out a lot of question that was never answered in the movie like things about Ariel's mother, there are other kingdoms besides Atlantica & other creatures that live down there. The animation, backgrounds and voice acting is just as amazing as in the movie. The series is also very educational like another review said. I'm sixteen and going on seventeen in a few more days and I've learnt a few things from this series. That something I hadn't expected. The series also guest stars Tim Curry who is best known for The Rocky Horror Picture Show. It also has Nancy Cartwright who is best known as Bart in The Simpsons and Danny Cooksey who played the part of John's friend, Tim in Terminator 2. The series is quite additive too. After seeing a few episodes, I started watching the 3:30AM airing of it too. Well if you could rate this I would give this series a 10/10 and not many cartoons deserve that rating these days. I recommend anyone who saw the movie to watch this series too. It's a pity that there weren't many episodes thought. I think that this series is better then the Aladdin series but just by a small bit.

willydefalco Being a fan of the Disney movie it was natural for me to see how Disney would do on translating it to a weekly TV series. And I was pretty happy with the results. Throughout it's three season life it managed to bring out more of the characters that I loved from the movie, while bringing new characters to enjoy.In the series Ariel was maybe three or four years younger than in the movie and still headstrong about seeing the world above her. Flounder is still a yellow guppie scared of everything and best pals with Ariel. Sebastion is still the babysitter of Ariel but less stricter. (I don't recall him ever ratting out Ariel throughout the course) The rest of the cast are still pretty much the same too.Of the new characters the best recurring ones have to be the Lobster Mobster and his sidekick the Shrimp. Two spoofs on Al Capone and one of his goons. They always showed up trying to take over things but in the end ended up doing more damage to themselves than to other. There was also Urchin, an orphan who through the Lobster Mobster eventually became another friend with Ariel, even hinting as a love interest in the future.The show even threw in references to the movie, with an occasional visit from Ursula and even Erik the prince, who commented on one day meeting that mermaid he saw in that certain episode.The show ended with an episode dedicated to Hans Christian Anderson, telling it through an animated Hans reading his classic story to a group of children, the story involving Ariel and Flounder and the entire gang. The last image was perhaps the best of the show, a painted image of Ariel lying on a rock by the sea, smiling, looking out at the distance. I'm glad that Disney still shows this cartoon on their channel even after many years, and I still look forward to seeing each episode. I only hope that the new sequel will provide Disney with the motivation to continue once again with the series.
