LouHomey From my favorite movies..
GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
hunterryanbelkin This Disney classic that revived good Disney animation and gave birth to the Disney Renaissance era features stunning animation for the time and catchy musical numbers. Ariel has an interesting character, but other than that, there isn't much else to praise. It's far from being a bad film, it's actually good, but the third act is where it all falls apart, and the romance is not as strong or powerful as it should be.
meghnasri-97601 Wow. What kind of film is this. This is such a boring film and this film is not at all a masterpiece. This film is so childish that only kids will like it and It was so stupid. The acting was a bit okay, the music is fine but the story is stupid. This is probably one of the dumbest Disney movies I saw. 5/10
adonis98-743-186503 A mermaid princess makes a Faustian bargain with an unscrupulous sea- witch in order to meet a human prince on land. Can someone explain to me how this Amazing Film has such a low rating here on IMDb? The Little Mermaid is not just a great movie but it's also a great animated film with characters that everyone can relate to for example girls related to Ariel and boys probably with Eric me on the other hand i found Sebastian to be the one that steals the show plus he was hilarious within his scenes with the Cook. The animation is very beautiful, the songs are fantastic and Ariel is probably the most beautiful of all the Disney Princesses out there and if it wasn't for Chris Stuckmann i would have probably never watched this underrated Classic and without any hesitation this film gets an A+
Hitchcoc This is a masterwork for Disney Studios. The story alone would be enough to carry this. We have great undersea characters whose level of knowledge is restricted to their environment, naturally. We have a nasty villain, Ursula, who is jealous and pained by her own appearance and awful voice. We have a longing for something that is not easily understood by the other characters. Take a really neat plot and throw in some amazing songs. I mean Broadway songs. Animation has become its own Broadway with very little tweaking. Ariel is a fully developed character with wants and needs. She is a strong "woman." One may find the need for a man a bit sexist at times, but it is more of a longing. We then have a willingness to give up everything (her voice in particular) to experience what it would be like to be a woman. Looking back on this film, we see the die is cast for success after success with some of the best pop music ever written.
