Not awful, which by Disney live-action standards means it’s a masterpiece.
ashMay 25, 2023There isn’t even a silly French chef who sings about how much he enjoys gutting and cooking fish in this one, like what’s the point
Bryan EspitiaMay 16, 2023disney should accept the fact that they will never be able to make another live action as good and as beautiful as this one

My god, what a masterpiece. The CGI (esp the lighting) is a spectacle to behold. Halle was meant to play this role and she does it effortlessly. Any changes/additions added value to an already beloved screenplay. Disney’s best live action hands down.
Kylie lovedThe Little Mermaidisnt in theatres but ppl are already hating it 😢
Clay Werner likedThe Little Mermaid8.2 - Congrats, Disney finally did it! The best live action remake yet, & even the slightest bit better than the original. I could go on & on with each change & why I liked it, but the best part is that each change was well reasoned & fluid, & the movie was still bright & fun.

- diana dislikedThe Little Mermaid
i hated it. The effects were bad the added songs were REALLY BAD, the acting was good though but i just hated how they changed my fav princess. NO HATE TO THE ACTRESS OR ANYTHING Disney just needs to stop remaking and start making bc this in no way compares to the original
Obihulk likedThe Little Mermaid7.8/10 throughout a stupidly controversial process Disney has made the best live action remake yet.One that may even be better than the original.The films changes gives a new light on each character.A story of each characters hardships that will be overcame with the power of love
JoJo is "meh" onThe Little MermaidOverall it was fine but I can’t say I’d feel the need to watch it again so I’m between meh/like? Ariel is very cute, it’s visually appealing, original songs are great. Some changes felt unnecessary or didn’t completely make sense and the three songs they added are a big no. 😬

Our first BLACK little mermaid
COChristopher OliveraConsidering this is my favorite movie of all time, I had very high hopes and expectations of the live action adaptation. After watching The Lion King and disliking it a lot, I wasn’t expecting much. I was completely blown away. Halle Bailey is the true star of the movie,…
JSJames StevensTrue to original and couldn’t have loved the cast more

Such a great retelling! The film is stunning on the big screen, Halle Bailey truly triumphed as Ariel!! Stand out performances: Ariel, Sebastian, Scuttle, King Triton! I loved the expansion on characters especially the Ariel’s sisters and Prince Eric!
