Jude Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 I'd give the movie 4 out of 5 stars tbh. My most favorite part is when she sang the reprise version of POYW. The ending is my second one. I didn't find the actor playing Prince Eric handsome but he was really adorable in the movie like he's so dreamy ugh. Halle's voice was just ugh, it moves my soul. And her acting was really convincing. The animals in the movie added a lot of nice humor in the film. The fight scenes could have been better imo but I guess it wasn't the focus of the film. Both have great chemistry, btw. You could really feel they're in love.Β Β I think this is my most favorite Disney remake so far.Β
Iuke Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 It was so good! Highlights were Under The Sea, Ariel's voice and all of Ursula's scenes.Β 1

loveisdead9582 Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 As someone who has found almost all of the live action remakes to be dull/disastrous, Iβm curious to know if it is as bad as people make it out to be. Halleβs vocals sound fantastic. I was raised on the animated classics but TLM wasnβt among my favorites. Is it a good enough retelling to warrant seeing in theaters or should I wait for the streaming release?

shinyshimmery Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 Just got back from seeing this. It was spectacular! everything about it was perfect, and Halle was perfectly casted as Ariel. Loved all of the underwater scenes, the first time the camera takes us underwater gave me chills! it's my favorite movie of 2023 so far.Β

ToMmY Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 I just watched it and I'm obsessed. So much better than I expected, mostly because the trailers didn't do justice to it at all. Β Halle was born to play this role and it was the best decision they made for this movie. I wasn't excited about Eric but here I am in love with him now. Also I'm not a fan of Melissa but she ATE. Β I think the "Under The Sea" scene was my favorite, so brilliant and beautifully made. Β I fully enjoyed the few changes they made to the story... So much that I think it's safe to say this version is better than the original movie. I watched it with the biggest Little Mermaid stan I know and she agrees. Β PS: I'm glad the racists are boycotting it because they don't deserve good things.

Sad Beautiful Tragic Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 Β Β Just got back from watching it Β Bailey's performance in the live-action adaptation of "The Little Mermaid" is truly exceptional. Her portrayal of Ariel not only captures the essence of the beloved animated character but also adds a new and refreshing flavour to the role. Β Bailey's enchanting voice and captivating presence bring depth and authenticity to the character, while her undeniable talent shines through in every scene. The film's adaptation successfully pays homage to the original animation whilst incorporating new elements, showcasing stunning visuals, and embracing a more diverse and inclusive cast. Halle Bailey's performance is a testament to her incredible talent and a true delight for fans of "The Little Mermaid." Β 4/5Β Β Β
