Summary: Ariel, the unique little mermaid Many times during the original "Little Mermaid", my 3 year old daughter asked, "Where is Ariel's mom? What happenened to her--did she die?" This movie answers those questions. One reviewer said the accidental death of Ariel's mom was not for kids. I guess that means The Lion King, Bambi, and Snow White where intended and plotted murder transpires, aren't for kids either then! My now 4 year old is satisfied that she understands the story better and how Flounder became her best friend as well. She's watched it 3 x times in two days since we got it, so I call it a kiddie hit. Also the movie features the obedient but vainly shallow other 6 sisters; one can understand how curious and intelligent Ariel, the last daughter and more resembling her mother than the other children, just doesn't really fit in to their sorority. They tell her she "just doesn't know when to stop". It's no wonder she sought a better life on land. The only out of place character is Benjamin (what is he a manatee?) the sidekick to Marina, the Ursula-lookalike governess to the 7 mermaid princesses. Benjamin tries to be the voice of conscience and reason to the power hungry governess but just ends up looking like a sea-oaf. Summary: excellent deal this purchase was an excellent deal. the product was recieved as promised in great condition and very prompt. Summary: Excellent! This film is definitely not a dud as compared to Cinderella II. This is a great film. Could Disney have stopped at just The Little Mermaid, yes. But this film answers some unanswered questions that were not addressed in the first firm. Overall, it is a great film! Summary: Ariel's Beginning Has Ended I borrowed this movie from the library because I was nervous about buying it. Sometimes these prequels and sequels can be a bit stretched and cheesy. In the past I have been pleasantly surprised with Cinderella III and Lion King 1 1/2, but here I am afraid I am disappointed. The music was not near the usual Disney quality. The animation was fine. The manitee (though he was cute and my 4-year-old son loved him) seemed a little out of place. Marina (the protagonist) was o.k., but not nearly as "bad" as I was expecting the villain to be. The plot was sort-of predictable in a bad way. After we watched the movie last night, my husband said it was stupid. I wouldn't go that far, but it is definitely one we will not be buying. Summary: Ariel's Beginning My 4 year old daughter who loves Ariel, of course, adored the movie. I had read some reviews of it before it came out and was surprised to see so many negative comments. But upon viewing it, I understood some. I was disappointed in the music...that it wasn't as catchy as many of the tunes in the original, but it still kept my interest and I thought the story line was fine. I could have done without them killing off the mom so brutally with a pirate ship. But overall I enjoyed it. |
