    It’s a cheap remake. It’s all really bad CGI and it’s such a dark movie. I don’t know, I just don’t like it at all. Doesn’t even seem like a Disney movie

    Very good family movie!

    Full of heart and led by a star-making performance from Halle Bailey, The Little Mermaid is an acceptable, if not always successful, adaptation of the animated original.

    Stop trying to change classics. These live action are horrible and lacking real talent and emotion that the animation gave.

    So beautiful seeing this childhood favorite come to live action. They did a beautiful job.

    Very disappointing, the CGI seemed lacking, her tail seemed dead and lifeless a lot of the time. Her sidekicks are no longer fun and friendly, Flounder gave uncanny valley vibes and was genuinely unsettling. The actress I feel was the wrong choice and Casting Halle Bailey as Ariel reduced representation for red-haired girls. Many redheads saw Ariel as a rare example of a red-haired heroine, and with few such characters in mainstream media, Ariel provided a unique form of representation. By changing her appearance, this reduced visibility for red-haired girls, a group already underrepresented in film.

    While it reimagines the original well enough, its CGI makes it come across as more generic than magical.

    This film deserves a lot more love than it gets, perfect cast, an unforgettable soundtrack and visually incredible

    It was absolutely, ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL🔥🔥!! I enjoyed every second of it. Halle Bailey did a phenomenal job as Ariel. Not just with the acting part but also the singing part. Also I liked how it perfectly balanced with keeping some of the things we liked about the original animated 1989 film while also providing some new things. I also liked the new songs that were added. Not to mention, this version also shed some light on the original. This is the best Disney live action remake I’ve seen since The Jungle Book, Aladdin and The Lion King. So without further ado, I’m gonna give The Little Mermaid (2023) an A+.
